Which calcium tablet is better

Calcium is an important nutrient for the human body. Calcium deficiency can cause various problems for the human body. Calcium tablets are a relatively effective way to supplement calcium. However, calcium supplements cannot be taken at will. The requirements for the quality and quantity of calcium are different during the growth, maturity and aging periods, and everyone's physique is also different. Therefore, if you want to supplement calcium, it is best to go to the hospital for a check-up and supplement calcium under the guidance of a doctor!

Growth period: Develop the habit of drinking milk

For children, too little calcium supplementation will not work, and too much calcium supplementation will easily lead to accumulation. So how should we supplement calcium appropriately? First of all, vitamin D should be supplemented at the same time as calcium supplementation to facilitate calcium absorption and promote calcium to play a better role; but attention should be paid to the dosage of vitamin D, 400-600 units per day, not excessive. Secondly, parents should cultivate good living habits in their children from an early age, not be picky or partial to certain foods, and maintain a balanced diet. Finally, do more outdoor activities. After being exposed to ultraviolet rays, the skin can synthesize vitamin D on its own. At the same time, please note that carbonated drinks and caffeine can cause calcium loss, and children should stay away from these things.

Drinking an appropriate amount of milk every day is important for calcium reserves during this period, because milk is the best source of calcium and the best natural food for calcium supplementation. Of course, drinking milk should also be scientific and reasonable. Generally speaking, children should eat breast milk or formula milk before the age of 2, and drink fresh milk after the age of 2. 500 ml of milk per day plus the calcium intake from other daily diet can meet the calcium needs of children. In addition, developing the habit of drinking milk from an early age can reduce the occurrence of milk intolerance in adulthood and improve the long-standing Chinese habit of lactose intolerance.

Maturity: Extra “food” for bones

After the age of 30, people enter the mature stage of growth and development. At this time, the functions of osteoblasts and osteoclasts in the body gradually reach a balance, and the calcium stored in the body begins to slowly decline after reaching its peak. In addition to continuing to supplement enough calcium, how to slow down the loss of existing calcium has become the most important "lesson" at this time.

To prevent calcium loss, a balanced diet is key. First of all, maintaining bone health requires the "assistance" of many other minerals in addition to calcium, such as phosphorus, magnesium, potassium, zinc, iron, etc. Generally, a calcium-phosphorus ratio of 1:1-2:1 in the diet is beneficial to the absorption of both. Foods high in phosphorus include lean meat, eggs, milk, nuts, whole grains, etc. Magnesium works synergistically with calcium to maintain bone health. Plant foods are high in magnesium, including grains, dark green vegetables, nuts, etc. Secondly, adequate intake of vitamins is also the key to bone health, such as vitamin D, B vitamins, vitamin A, folic acid, etc. Finally, the intake of macronutrients such as protein and carbohydrates can also maintain the body's metabolic balance and is beneficial to bone health.

Some people cannot get enough calcium from their daily diet, so they need some extra "snacks". Generally speaking, you can consume more nutritious foods that are "tailor-made" for bones, such as Mengniu Truensu OMP milk, which is rich in bone-building protein. The osteoblastic protein (OMP) contained in it is a natural active protein that exists in large quantities in milk. Its content is relatively high in colostrum and it has a unique mechanism and effect on improving human bone density. The OMP content in the ordinary milk we drink is only 10 micrograms.

In addition to diet, a healthy lifestyle is also key. Getting some sun every day can speed up the conversion and utilization of vitamin D; moderate exercise can speed up the body's metabolism and slow bone loss; at the same time, developing the habit of eating on time and allowing the body to form a fixed eating rhythm are important for preventing bone calcium loss.
