Abstract
Osteoporosis in the postmenopausal and elderly years is caused by a multitude of factors, which include calcium intake, and is felt largely to be a preventable situation. Low dietary calcium intakes (505 mgs. daily) are common in middle-aged females in southern West Virginia. Further information about the demographic factors in the elderly population from all socioeconomic groups needs to be explored to effect changes in dietary lifestyles.Entities:
