Osteoporosis plagues many older women
who have not been getting enough
calcium. Current findings indicate
large daily amounts of
calcium - 1000 milligrams - from
food or supplements may help
prevent osteoporosis.
One cup of whole milk, skim milk
or buttermilk provides about 300
milligrams of calcium. So does one
cup of plain yogurt*, ounces of
cheddar cheese, 1% cups of cottage
cheese and IM> cups of ice cream or
ice milk.
Skim milk is the lowest calorie
source of calcium (about 86
calories) followed by buttermilk
(99 calories). At the other end of
the scale is ice cream with about
330 calories for an admittedly
large- IVz cup serving. The same
amount of ice milk would run about
300 calories.
YORK “I’m sure I didn’t
trip,” said Nancy McKay. “My leg
just seemed to go out from under
me.”
Nancy, a retired school teacher,
didn’t trip. Her left hip broke
because her bones had become
extremely fragile. Nancy McKay
is a victim of osteoporosis.
Osteoporosis is a major health
problem for postmenopausal
women, says A. Joan Lamberson,
Extension home economist at the
Pennsylvania State University. It
results in a decrease of the total
bone mass, making the bones
extremely fragile and susceptible
to breakage.
It is the reason why some older
women grow shorter. It may also
result in “dowager’s hump” as

vertebra collapse. The most likely
cause of osteoporosis is not getting
enough calcium and vitamin D
over a long term period.
Milk and milk products are the
main dietary sources of calcium.
Most milk is fortified with vitamin
D, which comes from sunshine.
Adult women need 800
milligrams of calcium every day.
Yet a recent U.S. Department of
Agriculture survey showed that
the average women over 45 was
only getting about 450 milligrams -
about half the recommended
amount.
There are many reasons why
women don’t drink milk - the cost,
fear of gaining weight, lack of
awareness of its importance in the
adult diet or just plain dislike.
It may not be too late for women
