Calcium maltobionate supports bone health
We conducted a study to investigate how calcium maltobionate affects bone density in healthy Japanese women, particularly focusing on those who are pre- and post-menopausal. In a well-structured trial, 48 women aged between 30 and 69 were randomly divided into two groups: one received calcium maltobionate tablets while the other took a placebo designed to mimic the calcium content.

Over 24 weeks, we measured changes in facial and calcaneal bone density along with bone resorption markers. Our results indicated that facial bone mineral density declines more rapidly than that of other areas like the lumbar spine. Importantly, we observed that continuous intake of calcium maltobionate helped to slow down this decline in bone density for women in both menopausal stages, suggesting its potential role in osteoporosis prevention.

Overall, we found that facial bone mineral density may serve as an important indicator of bone health in middle-aged women. While our study highlights the beneficial aspects of calcium maltobionate, it’s essential to note that the individual effects of calcium itself could not be isolated from the compound used in the treatment.

Calcium aids bone health
This systematic review aimed to understand how different traditional Chinese exercises, combined with calcium supplementation, can improve bone mineral density (BMD) in postmenopausal women. Researchers examined a variety of approaches—such as Tai Chi and Baduanjin—while comparing these exercises to control groups that either did not participate in exercise or received only calcium supplements.

The results revealed that exercises like Tai Chi were effective in improving BMD across multiple sites in the body, including the lumbar spine and femoral neck. When calcium supplementation was paired with these exercises, particularly with Baduanjin, there were notable increases in bone density. However, it’s important to note that while calcium showed some benefit, it was mostly in conjunction with the exercise interventions, making it hard to fully separate the effects of calcium from those of the exercises.

Ultimately, while both calcium supplementation and traditional Chinese exercises like Tai Chi and Baduanjin can contribute to bone health in menopausal women, the study highlights that the exercises may be the most effective method for preventing bone loss.

Combats hair loss
I began taking pantothenic acid, aiming to prevent hair loss during menopause while improving hair strength and health. The capsules are somewhat large, but I’ll continue for three months to evaluate the results.
