Calcium Requirements Much Lower Than Previously Estimated

New studies reveal that we need less calcium in our diets than previously thought. If we are eating a nutrient-rich more alkaline diet such as the Super Antioxidant Diet we will absorb and retain more calcium. A diet rich in acid producing foods such as animal products causes the body to leech calcium from the bones to alkalize the body.
