Low calcium intake prevalent in women despite socioeconomic status.(Gynecology)
INDIAN WELLS, CALIF. -- Even educated women of high socioeconomic status do not appear to get enough calcium, Andrea Stein, M.D., said at the annual meeting of the Pacific Coast Reproductive Society.
In a survey of 180 middle-aged patients seen in her gynecology practice, in a wealthy area of the Los Angeles region, more than 50% apparently consume less than 1,000-1,500 mg of calcium per day, Dr. Stein said. Overall, 86% of the patients had a college degree, and 36% had an advanced degree. All were 45 years old or older.
Of the 99 patients taking no medications, 75% took a calcium supplement once a day or less, and 48% had a milk product once a day or less. Of the 60 on hormone therapy, 68% took a calcium supplement once a day or less, and 43% had a milk product once or less a day.
