Do we get enough calcium in our diet? Or is it important to supplement it ?

 

[Mobster]

That would depend on how healthy your diet was.

 

[stevesmi]

if your body is broken it doesn't matter how much calcium you take.

lead a healthy lifestyle and you will not have to worry about a deficiency. it isn't directly tied to diet because just cause something has calcium doesn't mean it will help your body have calcium in it. this is why dairy is a ruse

Calcium supplements are very important for weight lifters since the calcium ion is needed for muscle contractions

 

[RoySimpson]

Eat a well balanced diet and live a healthy lifestyle you wont have issue with deficiencies.

Do we get enough calcium in our diet? Or is it important to supplement it ?
