Milk against decalcification?

Physiological effects of milk

Milk and the milk products made of it are of vital importance, especially to growing organisms.

Milk against decalcification?

About one million people in Hungary are affected by decalcification, the metabolic disease of bones, which involves the continuous and gradual decrease of bone-tissues. This complaint occurs much more frequently in women than in men, and it is often more severe: not only it causes severe pain, but the risk of fracture (of the femoral neck or the vertebrae) will also increase even under low load.

Decalcification is a widespread disease in Hungary because, among other things, the milk consumption per capita is relatively low, and the human body can absorb the calcium necessary for the prevention of decalcification from milk and milk products (like yogurt, kefir and curd cheese) most efficiently. Drinking about a half litre of milk a day can already guarantee that our body gets enough calcium and the state of our bones and teeth will not change for the worse.
The composition of milk plays an important part in the absorption of calcium and its integration into the bones. It contains vitamins D, A, K and E, milk sugar, milk proteins, magnesium, phosphorous and other microelements.
