#Calcium Intake Is Inversely Related to Risk of #Obesity among American Young Adults over a 30-Year Follow-Up
Calcium (Ca) is an essential nutrient that may play an important role in weight maintenance through its involvement in energy or lipid metabolism. However, little is known about the long-term associations of Ca intake with obesity risk. ObjectivesWe aimed to prospectively examine the association between cumulative Ca intake and the incidence of obesity among American …
