Nutrition Food for ThoughtThey say we learn something new every day. You’ve probably already learned that calcium is important because it builds bones. That’s an old, kind of ho-hum idea. It’s likely you’ve learned you need weight bearing exercise to stress your bones enough to get them rebuilding. That’s something else that lots of us have probably thought about before. Maybe it occurred to you ages ago that your bones need a steady supply of calcium, but also protein to keep them remodeling. Maybe that’s just another ho-hum idea because you’ve heard it at least a gazillion times before.
Here’s something new. Consider that many new studies have shown a link between calcium and weight loss. One thousand milligrams of calcium each day helps to both reduce fat intake and increase fat metabolism. That just may be today’s new idea. It’s one that’s catching on and growing with the research findings.
Here’s another new thought for tomorrow, just in case you need it. Calcium is absorbed better through the liquid form of milk, the whey. Whey protein will deliver the most efficient and effective calcium absorption available, whether you want it for strong bones or less fat. A whey protein shake serving contains about 1/3 of your daily requirement of highly absorbable calcium. Mix it with milk and it’s higher.
Now that’s food for new thought. It’s a good idea that’s worth learning today.
