Osteoporosis occurs when the bones become brittle and break easily. Diet low in calcium and inadequate vitamin D intake may contribute to the risk of osteoporosis.
Calcium
Independent research 1,3 over a two-year period in Hong Kong and Malaysia tested ANLENE Gold Hi-Calcium Skimmed Milk on post-menopausal women in reducing the rate of bone loss.
The women who consumed ANLENE Gold Hi-Calcium Skimmed Milk had lost significantly less bone at the total body, hip and spine.
Results confirm that regular consumption of ANLENE Gold Hi-Calcium Skimmed Milk helps to reduce the rate of bone loss.
Vitamin D
Vitamin D levels depend on sunlight. So why do people in countries with plenty of sunlight need extra vitamin D?
1. People with darker skins cannot produce as much vitamin D from sunlight compared to people with paler skins
2. People who fully cover themselves with clothing and/or are housebound are not exposed to enough sunlight
3. Pollution blocks out sunlight
4. Use of sunscreen reduces the body's exposure to sunlight, making it difficult for the body to produce enough vitamin D
A study 1,2 on vitamin D level was conducted in Malaysia on both Malay and Chinese post-menopausal women of ages 50 years and above. Of the two races, the Malays recorded the lowest levels. These women were given milk supplementation (ANLENE Gold) and this improved vitamin D levels and therefore helped reduce bone loss.
