New research reveals need to pair calcium with phosphorus.(osteoporosis )(Brief Article)
2002 JUL 11 - (NewsRx.com & NewsRx.net) -- A new research study published in the June issue of the Journal of the American College of Nutrition demonstrates that osteoporosis patients should receive their calcium in the form of calcium phosphate.
The study shows that as calcium intake increases without a corresponding increase in phosphorus, total phosphorus absorption falls and the risk for phosphorous deficiency rises. Phosphorus deficiency may render calcium supplementation less effective and could actually lead to increased bone loss.
Nearly 50 million American women are phosphorus deficient, and studies show that the incidence of phosphorus deficiency increases with age. These low intake levels could jeopardize bone-building therapies in postmenopausal, osteoporotic women. Individuals with low phosphorus intake are at an increased risk for low bone mass and fractures.
