NPA on Vitamin D and Calcium Supplementation for Women
The Natural Products Association comments on vitamin D and calcium supplementation for postmenopausal women.
February 25/Washington/Press Release -- The Natural Products Association (NPA) represents the dietary supplement industry, and Dr. Cara Welch, its senior vice president of scientific and regulatory affairs, comments on vitamin D and calcium supplementation for postmenopausal women:
“The Natural Products Association believes that dietary supplementation is both safe and effective for anyone who isn’t getting enough calcium and vitamin D from their diet. These nutrients have been shown to support bone health and it’s important that consumers get the recommended levels of both. If diet alone isn’t enough, then dietary supplements can help with getting these vital nutrients.
