In the experiment participated 23000 men aged from 45 to 79. Major source of calcium in the diet of experiment participants were diary and cereal products. Those who took daily products with high amount of calcium, mortality risk from different diseases during following 10 years was 12% lower than in those whose diet contained less calcium. Also was noticed mortality risk reduction from cardio-vascular diseases by 23%. However, significant calcium action at mortality rate from cancer was not detected.
Obtained data proves the results of most earlier studies during which was established connection between calcium consumption and longevity increase not only in men but also in women. In the eyes of scientists, this helps to make conclusion that daily calcium consumption above the established mark (1000mg for men from 19 to 50 years, and 1200mg for men over 50) lowers mortality risk from any disease.
