Calcium Burns Fat And Builds Bones People who drink 2glasses of skim milk or eat 2cups of yogurt or one serving of cheese per day can lose around 1 pound per month.
Calcium present in these dairy products promotes build up of more muscle tissue and burns stored fat.
Also the protein in these dairy products replaces the fat stored in the fat cells by providing extra protein.
Calcium blocks fat storage in the cells that add extra pounds to your abdomen, hips and thighs.
Low-fat and non-fat products also contain the same nutrients as whole milk, except the fat. Calcium is very essential for the formation and maintenance of healthy bones. If you are between 2-45 years, you need 500-750mg of calcium daily and if you are over 45years you need 1,000-1,200mg.
Besides dairy products, cereals, soymilk, orange juice, canned sardines with bones are rich in calcium. And for the proper absorption of calcium you need sufficient Vitamin D, which is provided by sunlight, Vitamin C and K are also essential to keep the bones healthy. Carbonated beverages, alcohol and extremely low calorie diets lead to thinning of bones.
A high calcium diet combined with walking and weight bearing exercises helps lose weight easily, firm up your figure, shape up your muscles and help keep your bones strong and healthy.
