JUST THE FACTS
− Calcium is necessary for
brain function, normal
heart rhythm, healthy blood
pressure and coordinating
muscle contraction
− 99% of body’s calcium is
stored in bones, and if no
additional source of calcium,
the body will release its
stored calcium from bones
to perform functions
− Ensuring your child
meets their calcium needs
will help them avoid osteoporosis as they age
CALCIUM
