Even MORE Studies Confirm, Calcium Still Doesn't Prevent Fractures

The video discusses the myths surrounding the benefits of milk and calcium intake for bone health. It reviews two studies from the BMJ, one on calcium intake and fracture risk, and the other on bone mineral density. The findings suggest that dietary calcium does not significantly prevent fractures, and while calcium supplementation slightly increases bone mineral density, it does not lead to meaningful outcomes in fracture prevention. The video also critiques current guidelines recommending high calcium intake for older adults, highlighting potential adverse effects. The conclusion calls for a reevaluation of these recommendations.
