» Joy Butler - Calcium absorbtion

Great article with lots of valuable information. I understand there is new evidence that, although dairy products are loaded with calcium, absorbtion is somewhat hampered by the high protein content, and that calcium from vegetable sources is more readily absorbed. Have you found any information on this?

In response to message posted by JButler:

Hi ... I've looked for information regarding calcium absorption being hampered by the high protein content in dairy products and cannot find anything stating that fact. I am very interested in knowing if this is true. I will continue looking into it. If you happen to find any information, can you please let me know? Thanks!
