99% of people don't know that calcium supplementation is the key to successful weight loss
Under the state of diet and weight loss, especially when eating only vegetables and fruits for three meals, the calcium intake in food is seriously insufficient. A very low-calorie diet (intake of less than 1000 calories per day) leads to insufficient body function, a large amount of fat is decomposed (rapid weight loss), and its intermediate product "keto acid" does not have time to be completely oxidized and often accumulates temporarily in the blood, causing the blood to become acidic. Danger. At this time, the body mobilizes calcium ions from the bones to neutralize the acid, causing calcium loss.
Serious insufficient protein intake in food will also reduce the absorption efficiency of food calcium. In other words: the triple attack of calcium intake, storage and absorption will expose people who are on a diet to lose weight to serious calcium deficiency hazards. The faster you lose weight, the greater the hidden danger.
