For Stronger Bones, Calcium Supplements Aren't What They're Cracked Up To Be

By Freddie Mooche(AXcess News) Washington - The benefit of supplemental minerals and vitamins has been questioned for some time and for women hoping to prevent the onslaught of osteoporosis, calcium supplements may not be all they're cracked up to be.Two major studies whose results were released last week found that thecalcium supplementsprovide little or no benefit against either osteoporosis or colorectal cancer. But researchers say the results of those studies may not be accurate.A study of postmenopausal women who took calcium-and-vitamin-D supplements showed no reduction in hip, arm or spine fractures over the seven period the study was conducted, though it did note a 1 percent increase in those women's bone density.Yet women who managed to take the vitamin-mineralsupplements had 29% fewer hip fractures. And women over 60 suffered 21% fewer broken hips. So the good news here is keep taking those supplements and don't let surveys or studies tell you they maynot be all they're cracked up to be.In a companion study researchers found that there was no benefit to preventing colorectal cancer in women who took calcium and vitamin D supplements either. But in looking into the study more closely, you find that those women were not at risk of contracting colorectal cancer either.Men and women who have already had one precancerous polyp surgically removed from their intestinal tract develop fewer subsequent polyps -if they take calcium supplements, other studies have concluded.So the bottom line is, if you're going to take calcium and vitamin D supplements, make sure you take them regularly and watch what you eat.
