Dietary Calcium

Calcium compounds used as food supplements or in food to supply the body with calcium. Dietary calcium is needed during growth for bone development and for maintenance of skeletal integrity later in life to prevent osteoporosis.

1.	Osteoporosis 05/01/2015 - "Greater milk intake is associated with lower bone turnover, higher bone density, and higher bone microarchitecture index in a population of elderly Japanese men with relatively low dietary calcium intake: Fujiwara-kyo Osteoporosis Risk in Men (FORMEN) Study." 07/01/2013 - "The objective of the study was to analyze the consumption of dairy products and dietary calcium by women in the context of bone mineral density and to assess opportunities to prevent osteoporosis in a dietary manner. " 07/01/2007 - "The authors' purpose in this study was to investigate the influence of knowledge of osteoporosis, attitudes regarding osteoporosis, and knowledge of dietary calcium on dairy product intake in both male and female college-age students. " 07/01/2004 - "The purpose of this study was to explore female adolescents' knowledge about osteoporosis risk factors and the role of dietary calcium and exercise in the prevention of osteoporosis. " 01/01/2015 - "It was concluded that adequate intake of varied fruits and vegetables, good protein, habit of daily physical activity, adequate sun exposure, and dietary calcium, may play a promising role in decreasing the risk of osteoporosis among women of this age group."
2.	Hypertension (High Blood Pressure) 05/01/1996 - "Evidence suggests that dietary calcium is protective against hypertension. " 09/01/2006 - "Dietary calcium may be helpful in prevention of hypertension induced by elevated lead burden." 05/01/2000 - "Of the 4 trials in which subjects had adequate dietary calcium, the TRR of high blood pressure was 0.90 (95% CI: 0.81, 0.99). " 05/01/2000 - "On the basis of the results of the 5 randomized, controlled trials available, the risk of high blood pressure was lower in women with low baseline dietary calcium [typical relative risk (TRR): 0.49; 95% CI: 0.38, 0.62]. " 10/08/1999 - "Results of many clinical and experimental studies indicate an inverse relationship between dietary calcium and the prevalence of hypertension. "
3.	Pregnancy-Induced Hypertension (Hypertension, Pregnancy Induced) 06/01/1995 - "The purpose of this study is to clarify whether the taking of a calcium dietary supplement is able to prevent the development of pregnancy-induced hypertension (PIH) in Japanese people. " 06/01/1989 - "Previous studies have suggested that increased dietary calcium is associated with a decreased occurrence of pregnancy-induced hypertension. " 05/01/2000 - "Dietary calcium and pregnancy-induced hypertension: is there a relation?" 06/01/1995 - "Prevention of pregnancy-induced hypertension by calcium dietary supplement: a preliminary report." 08/01/1992 - "Epidemiologic studies have shown an inverse relationship between dietary calcium intake and gestational hypertension. "

" 05/20/2008 - "We illustrate the method on data from a study of the relationship between dietary calcium intake and distal colon cancer." 08/01/2002 - "Early- and late-stage intermediate biomarker studies in humans have strongly suggested utility for supplemental dietary calcium to inhibit the development of benign and subsequent malignant colonic neoplasms. " 01/01/1996 - "A number of studies have demonstrated the protective effect of dietary calcium against risk for colon cancer. " 07/01/1991 - "In limited studies in man, the colonic hyperproliferation associated with increased risk for colon cancer has been reversed for short periods by administration of supplemental dietary calcium. "
5.	Colorectal Neoplasms (Colorectal Cancer) 09/01/2014 - "This study shows that despite its inverse association with colorectal cancer risk, the prediagnostic intake of dairy and dietary calcium does not affect colorectal cancer survival." 01/01/2013 - "The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of intake of higher levels of dietary calcium on the risk of developing of colorectal cancer, and to evaluate dose dependent effect and to investigate possible effect modification. " 04/01/2000 - "Increased dietary calcium might reduce colorectal cancer risk, possibly by reduction of colonic epithelial hyperproliferation, but not all studies have demonstrated this. " 09/01/2015 - "The inverse correlation between dietary calcium intake and the risk of colorectal cancer (CRC) is well known, but poorly understood. " 01/01/2015 - "Binary and polytomous logistic regression models were used to evaluate the association between dietary calcium intake and risk of colorectal cancer. "
