Organization Credits Calcium For It's Contribution To Women's Health
The North American Menopause Society, a leading non-profit organization that promotes women's health, has published a consensus opinion stating that adequate amounts of calcium are important for all women, particularly those who are peri- and postmenopausal. The organization arrived at its consensus by reviewing published medical data as well as appointing a panel of recognized calcium experts. Some of the key findings showed that calcium (along with adequate vitamin D) contributed positively to women's skeletal health and blood pressure levels. It also finds that there is some evidence to suggest that it provides some chemo protective properties against colorectal cancer.
