"Older women who take calcium supplements to maintain bone strength may have an increased risk of heart attack, researchers in New Zealand said on Tuesday...At least you will see well while having your heart attack.
'This effect could outweigh any benefits on bone from calcium supplements,' researchers led by Ian Reid of the University of Auckland wrote in the British Medical Journal."

"Truth" has a shelf life.
The shelf life of "truth" is very short in the domains of fitness, health and well-being.
The reason is that so much of what we are told is "true" is really baseless.

Any real researcher knows that calcium should be taken with vitamin D and magnesium!!!This was not done and many of these women had lowered(lack of hydrochloric acid) digestion issues.This is common.
