In general, calcium food sources are found in the highest amounts in raw dairy and green vegetables.
Top Health Benefits of Calcium
Bone HealthCalcium is critical in the teens into the early 20s when bones are solidifying and the body is achieving its peak bone mass. The greater the peak bone mass, the longer one can delay osteoporosis or loss of bone mass at a later age. Over 10 million US adults are affected by osteoporosis and it is one of the leading causes of bone fractures in the elderly.
Cancer PreventionStudies have shown that consuming calcium rich foods are associated with a decreased risk of colon and rectal cancers. The evidence is not enough to recommend calcium supplements for the prevention of colon cancer, but eating high calcium foods may have the same effect.
Weight managementThere is a connection between calcium intake and lower body weight. It is believed that calcium in the diet can bind to fat in the digestive system, preventing absorption, therefore lowering the calories that actually make it into the body.
Blood pressure and heart healthHigh Calcium foods help relax smooth muscle, found in the veins and arteries, and can help reduce blood pressure. The DASH Diet (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension) recommends a diet high in calcium to help improve blood pressure.
