Calcium and Bone Health after Weight Loss Surgery
Episode description
Let me know what you thought of this episode!
Calcium is an important mineral for every single bariatric patient. Calcium builds and maintains the bone matrix and is very important in preventing osteoporosis.
The average calcium supplement provides 600 mg per day, however this is most likely not what you’re achieving through your diet.
In this episode, I go through:
- Why calcium is important
- Where you can find it in food
- How much bariatric patients need daily
- How to know if your bones are healthy
- How to support your bones as you age
Keep a note-pad handy as there is lots of information that will help you support your bones in the long-term!
