Of Calcium Pfls
bone loss that leads to osteoporosis
in older women.
A study now underway at the
U.S. Department of Agriculture’s
Human Nutrition Research Center
on Aging, at Tufts University in
Boston, promises to settle this
question for women who take
calcium supplements after
menopause. The study, lasting five
years and using 360 volunteers,
will be the longest and largest of its
kind.
“We want to leam who, if
anyone, will benefit from taking
calcium supplements after
menopause—and if there is a
benefit, does it last over the long
term,” said Dr. Bess Dawson-
Hughes, director of the center’s
calcium and bone metabolism
laboratory and architect of the
study funded by USDA’s
Agricultural Research Service.
In 1985, Americans spent an
estimated $260 million on the
supplements—twice as much as in
1983, according to the Council for
Responsible Nutrition, an
association of vitamin and mineral
supplement manufacturers. Sales
are expected to keep rising.
Dawson-Hughes hopes to resolve
conflicting findings from previous
studies on the effects of increasing
calcium intake after menopause.
No similar study has been done
with women who are still men
struating.
In the new study, researchers
will also be looking for any un
suspected risks from the sup
plements, said Dawson-Hughes,
who is associated with Tufts
University Medical School. It is
already known that excess calcium
can cause kidney stones, and a
preliminary study by Dawson-
Hughes indicated that taking the
supplements with meals can
reduce the amount of iron that gets
into the body.
The 360 volunteers will take a
daily 500-milligram calcium
supplement or a look-alike placebo <
and be checked once a year for any
changes in bone density. To ensure
objective results, neither scientists
nor volunteers will know which pill
each woman is getting until the
study ends, Dawson-Hughes said.
The researchers will use state
of-the-art technology called dual
photon absorptiometry to detect
changes in the spine and hips—
where osteoporosis is most serious,
she said. Other studies have used
the forearm, she said, but arm and
leg bones are less susceptible to
fractures than those in the central
skeleton.
