Calcium & Cholesterol during Weight Loss
Women losing weight are encouraged to take calcium and Vitamin D supplements so that they will see the maximum reduction of bad cholesterol and maximum increase of good cholesterol associated with that weight loss, per research in the January 2007 edition of the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.
Researchers noted that calcium intake is typically low among overweight women, there are a number of benefits to women losing weight from calcium intake, and women who are trying to lose weight should be sure to get adequate amounts of every other vitamin and mineral, as well as calcium and vitamin D, because of the various benefits of general supplementation on weight loss.
