“Do Calcium Pills Work?”

Please Take Heed of This Message!

Any woman who has been faithfully swallowing her daily calcium supplements in hopes of staving off osteoporosis and colorectal cancer can be forgiven for being confused by news last week that TWO major studies found that the pills provide little or NO benefits against either condition.

A study of more than 36,000 healthy postmenopausal women determined that taking a standard calcium-and vitamins D supplement for 7 YEARS had No significant effect for most of them on preventing fractures in the spine, arms and hips, although it did lead to a 1% improvement in hip-bone density.

The message you should get from this is Calcium and Vitamin d supplements are no magic bullets, but if you’re going to try to take them, try to take them every day.

*** Personal note from Margie…

These women where taking calcium in powder form and according to research, when taking calcium in powder or capsule or tablet form…their bodied can only absorb about 10% and the rest is flushed out of the body.

They have wasted 90% of their money but much worse is that they thought they were being protected.

And taking calcium without magnesium is another reason they get no benefits. Both have to be present together.

I know, I know, I am always telling you to send an email to me. Well, if this information bothers you need to know what I take. At 80 I out do most all other 80 year olds and look much, much younger.

To see me at 78 go to http://www.thearthritislady.com

But do send me an email to see what I take in calcium and magnesium mailto:arthritislady@cureyourarthritis.com with Calcium in the subject field.

I am here to help you, help yourself, enjoy a Vibrant Life.

Best of Health,
