Persuasive Speech On Calcium Absorption

Those sorts of claims. Also, they go on further to say that you better be careful because the unabsorbed calcium is a cause of kidney stones.

So you better get our super absorbed calcium otherwise you might risk getting kidney stones, and then other marketers confuse intestinal absorption with what happens in your stomach. Dissolution happens in your stomach, it dissolves the calcium and all calciums dissolve very, very well in stomach acid, ninety-five to one-hundred percent absorption is normal. Some of the post card snippets absorption story, did I say dissolution or dissolve? So ninety-five, ninety-seven, a-hundred percent is normal in your stomach, but not normal in your intestinal absorption, they're two different things. Okay… so what …show more content…
If you have the bone strength automatically you know it’s well absorbed. All right, so your focus should be on bone strength research, and that's where we spent our focus as well. All right, so we know that most calcium doesn't come from edible sources, we know that there is a difference is calcium salts out there in terms of their results, we know that typical calcium formulations are incomplete, and we know that the calcium absorption rate is a big non-issue, you shouldn't be concerned about it. All the calciums absorb similarly, and the final myth is that calcium increases bone density. Do you believe that calcium increases bone density in adults? Well? Let’s understand. When you are born and start to build your bones, your bones continue to increase in density until around age forty, thirty-five to forty somewhere in there you plateau out, you've reached the top, and then from that point on its all downhill. All of us lose about one percent a year, women one percent a year almost exactly, men a little bit less at point eight of a percent. Every year until you die. So if we live long enough all of us get osteoporosis. So of course the key is to get as high up to the peak bone density as you can so that the ride down you still have some bones left before you die. All right, so, I told you that because when you look at the studies on calcium supplements they show that the best you can do with calcium, vitamin D, it doesn't matter which one, point to any one on the shelf. There all calcium carbonate, citrate, renolate [SP], gluconate, lactate, they've all been studied. They all show that they just slow the bone loss. So, instead of losing one percent a year, you'll lose a half of a percent, or you'll lose a quarter of a percent, something like that. I have a couple of meta studies, if anyone is interested I can send you the meta studies which summarizes the results of some sixty-five thousand post-menopausal women on bone density. All calcium
