Calcium is a necessity for all … right from a newborn to an aged person,
as the body's need for calcium actually increases as one gets older. This is so
because bones reach maximum strength and density around age 30, but as we age,
our body absorbs calcium from our diet at a lower rate. We need to eat foods high
in calcium to make up for this lower absorption and to help maintain the bone
strength gained in the former years.
