CALCIUM: UNUSUAL SOURCES IN THE HIGHLAND PERUVIAN DIET.

B T BAKER, R B MAZESS.   

Abstract

A dietary survey conducted in the southern highlands of Peru revealed two important sources of dietary calcium not previously reported. Mineral and ash calcium ingested as a food spice, and along with coca, raises the calcium intake from the low figures recorded by standard nutritional surveys to a more substantial level.
