Calcium intake and short term weight management

June 14th, 2007 | by David Spelts |

A short, three week diet study showed no difference in weight loss between the group receiving calcium and the group that did not. However, the addition of calcium resulted in a decrease in hunger score and a better preservation of lean body mass. These benefits may have translated into greater weight loss had the study been of longer duration.

This study found no difference between dairy calcium and supplemental calcium.
