Very helpful! I take D3 and K 2 every day and have those checked annually. I don’t take calcium but try to get it in food. Your reminder that strength training is necessary lit a fire under me 😉
Excellent, clear summary. While you can get your calcium needs met via diet alone as a dietitian I find many of my clients have to be very mindful of their choices to reach the target. It can be especially challenging if they don’t include dairy(or plant fortified) products.
I completely agree, Sandra. It’s incredibly hard to eat intuitively to meet your calcium needs. I always recommend people use a calcium calculator available online to see how much they eat and to get rough ideas of where to increase it.
