Its role in the body
Calcium is part of bones and teeth. It also plays a role in muscle contraction and communication between nerves.
Start with food
Milk, yogurt and cheese provide calcium. Some foods and drinks have added calcium: check their labels.
Is more calcium always better?
No. Needs depend on the individual and total intake from food and supplements. Review the labels with a professional before combining products.
