Surprising news about calcium
 
I was surprised by this new information about calcium deficiency, especially since the countries with the highest calcium intake also have the highest incidence of osteoporosis. I didn't know that.

I'm sure it won't hurt anyone to increase the amount of lycopene in their diet. Are there blood tests that can be done for every mineral and vitamin to determine if we're "over or under" the recommended amount? Of course the recommended amount seems to change with every new study that is released.:confused:
