We Need up To 1200 mg Of Calcium Daily

The National Academy of Sciences has recently re-established recommended intakes for calcium as much as 50% higher than previous RDA levels; 1,000 mg daily for adults up to 50 years of age, and 1200 mg for adults over 50. Most diets, especially those of teenagers, provide far lower levels of calcium than these recommendations. Because bone mass is built predominantly during adolescence and young adult years, we have to rely on that "bank account" the rest of our lives. Double-blind studies have substantiated that increased intake of calcium in the diet leads to increased bone mass in pre-pubertal girls. This is likely to translate into lifelong healthier bones.

Regular exercise and a healthy diet with enough calcium help teen and young adult white and Asian women maintain good bone health and may reduce their high risk of osteoporosis later in life.

Adequate calcium intake is important, but daily intakes above about 2,000  mg are not likely to provide any additional benefit.

Holistic Nutritional Program Shows Dramatic Results

One remarkable study, done with post-menopausal women who were already taking hormone replacement therapy, involved a complete dietary program that included avoiding processed food, emphasized vegetable over animal protein, limited salt, sugar, alcohol, caffeine, and tobacco and emphasized supplementation of magnesium and calcium, along with vitamins B, C, and D, zinc, copper, manganese, and boron. The results showed an amazing average increase in bone density of 11% after only 9 months in the study group compared to only 0.7% increase in the women taking hormone replacement alone.

A USDA study also indicated that maintaining sufficient calcium intake in a woman's daily diet might also help reduce some of the occasional symptoms associated with premenstrual syndrome (PMS) and menstrual cramps.

Unlike other calcium supplements (many of which supply only calcium), Life Plus CalMag Plus provides 500 mg of calcium and 250 mg magnesium per daily serving. Multiple sources of critically important health-supporting calcium and magnesium have been assimilated into two proprietary blends known as PolyCalPlex TM and PolyMagPlex TM, consisting of citrates, lactates, aspartates, and carbonates.

CalMag Plus contains natural vitamin D-3, usually in short supply during the winter months and required for calcium utilization. The diets of elderly people generally lack this essential vitamin.
