Calcium Intake May Impact Body Weight
In a small research study, Danish scientists found some evidence to support that calcium could reduce body weight by binding fat in the intestine and increasing its elimination from the body. This evidence may help explain why a high-calcium diet produces weight loss. Further weight loss trials are needed to test the mechanisms of calcium on weight.
