1 in 3 women over 45 will develop osteoporosis.5 It is more common than many people think.
Bone mass usually peaks in your 20s. From then it will slowly decline with age.
Including adequate calcium in you diet will help to reduce your risk of developing osteoporosis.
The last National Nutritional Survey showed 3 in 4 women aged 45 years and over have less than 1,000mg in their daily diet.18
Caltrate assists in preventing and treating osteoporosis.
Each Caltrate tablet contains 600mg of calcium or up to 60% of your recommended daily calcium intake.2
