  • Title: [Importance of calcium and vitamin D intake in the childhood for the prevention of osteoporosis].
    Author: Yamamoto T.
    Journal: Clin Calcium; 2004 Mar; 14(3):402-6. PubMed ID: 15576999.
    Abstract:
    Bone stored a large amount of calcium. It is well known to the people who are engaged in medicine that the maximal bone mineral density in female is achieved at the age of 16. However, this evidence is not so familiar to the healthy Japanese. In this article, I emphasize that calcium and vitamin D intake are very important nutrients for preventing osteoporosis. I also propose that bone survey of the female students, who are attending to the junior high school or high school, will be important to find out the high risk group of osteoporosis in future.
