Calcium helps break down fat



Recommended Posts

I was reading this article tonight and found this bit to be particularly interesting and wanted to share it with everyone. Calcium is one thing I've completely forgotten in the midst of all these changes that came with the band. Anyone educated on calcium and what's a good amount to take? Not just the RDA - I think those are far too conservative.

Also, I found this article about calcium absorption that everyone should read over. Especially us gals who are getting on in age and need more calcium. I noticed is listed whey Protein as a possible deterant to calcilum absorption. I find this hard to believe since so many doctors are telling us that whey is the best form or protein supplement. Boy do I have some questions for my doctor and nutritionist next week!

My surgeon's nutritionist demands I take 1,000 to 1,200 mg by supplement each day.

As well as Iron and a multi

I am told to take Multi Vitamin early in the AM, Calcium 1 hour later, 2 hours after that a protein....jumping to later in the day another calcium 30 minutes after last meal , then 3 hours later Iron before bed. :hungry:

I have read that the Calcium in milk is too coarse for humans to use - that it's meant for baby cows, not humans. Cows don't drink milk to make milk - they eat nothing but greens and grains, which supply all the calcium they need not only to keep their own bones healthy, but with enough left over to create a high calcium milk for their offspring (to build big, heavy cow bones).I don't think this is a very popular stance, as the government seems hellbent on pushing milk products on the public, and I don't even know how true it is, but...The argument that no other adult animals on this planet need to drink milk (of any species, let alone a different species) to supply their calcium needs seems kind of significant to me, and implies that humans probably don't need to, either...FWIW

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.
