Important thoughts on Calcium
A recent study, involving a large number of women over a long period of time (metanalysis) demonstrated that the use of calcium supplements INCREASES the risk of heart attacks and cardiovascular disease.
With Osteoporosis still looming as the single largest cause of hospital visits for postmenopausal women and the recent concerns related to prescription solutions (and now calcium products), what are women to do?
The study’s result is not all together surprising to the staff at Nature’s Outlet. For several years now, we have been educating and steering our customers to whole food supplementation, where ingredients commonly recognized as food (plant sourced usually) are the basis for supplemental nutrition. Our top recommendation for optimal bone health remains “BONESTRENGTH”, by New Chapter.
New Chapter has led the paradigmn shift towards using food, and incorporates a plant (algae) source calcium as well as other whole food nutrients to its Bonestrength product. Please stop by our stores for detailed product information and information on a product that has produced positive results for hundreds of Nature’s Outlet customers.
