Recent research
shows that the diets of most women including teenage girls and menopausal
women lead to a serious lack of calcium and magnesium that weakens their
bone structure. Lack of exercise and smoking also contributes to the rate
of bone loss.
Postmenopausal
women whose diets were supplemented with calcium citrate lost less bone
than women who took calcium carbonate or no calcium, and in women who
were seven or more years past menopause, bone mineral density actually
increased in the important weight bearing leg and thigh bones. Magnesium
is also deficient in the diets of 67% to 85% of women. Postmenopausal
women need magnesium supplementation since they do not absorb magnesium
efficiently. LifeTime Liquid Calcium Citrate with Vitamin D is an excellent
mineral formula that is highly absorbable, reducing the risk of osteoporosis.
