While nearly half of adult bone mass is formed during adolescent years, nine out of 10 girls and seven out of 10 boys are not meet ing their daily calcium quota. Cal cium, found in milk and milk group foods, is the primary nutri ent that helps bones grow long and strong. “Adolescent boys and girls drink about three times as much soda as milk in a day. As a result, most are coming up alarmingly short on calcium,” said Ann Marie Krautheim, RD, LD, director of nutrition communication and pro grams for ADADC Mid East “Tracking data indicates that many individuals are visiting this site daily and spending a signifi cant amount of time learning about the benefits of milk’s cal cium.” “No Bones About It . . . Drink Milk for Calcium,” found at www.drink-milk.com, includes Winners $8,500 from AgChoice Farm Credit ACA.

Web Site four interactive activities that teach kids about the importance of meeting their need for calcium rich foods. These activities enable kids to evaluate their fitness level and the amount of calcium they are contributing to their “bone bank” and identify their individual “food personality.” Kids can also find calcium rich food ideas to satisfy after school “snack at tacks.” New games and additional recipes will be added in through out the next several months.
