ISSUES CONTROVERSIAL ABOUT CALCIUM

Abstract

Intakes of calcium are falling in Britain according to the National Food Survey and this has been attributed to decreases in the consumption of dairy products and cereals. The recently published and controversial DHSS report on the eating habits of schoolchildren shows that certain groups of children have low intakes of calcium, especially those who are slimming or eating cafe lunches.
