If you are nearing menopause, concerned about osteoporosis, or do not get enough calcium in your diet, then it's probably time. Frequently recommended by physicians, Oscal provides supplemental calcium that may be missing from your diet (the National Osteoporosis Foundation suggests between 1,000 and 1,300 mg a day, depending on your age).
Osteoporosis affects middle-aged and older persons, especially Caucasian and Asian women, and those whose families tend to have fragile bones in later years.
A lifetime of regular exercise and eating a healthful diet that includes enough calcium, especially during teen and early adult years, builds and maintains good bone health and may reduce the risk of osteoporosis in later life.

Os Cal Calcium CapletsMay 25, 2008 This calcium tablet is great for giving me the extra calcium that my doctor recommended for me. The only thing I don't like about it is the large caplet size. I take it with my other vitamins after eating my breakfast. I've also taken it without food without any problems.
