90% of this calcium is in teeth and bones. Bone is living tissue that is continually being broken down and rebuilt. The bone growth rate is highest among children. Ageing and under-nutrition causes stunting, and bone breakdown to outweigh bone rebuilding.
Adequate intake of calcium in children and adults ensures optimum growth, repair and maintenance of bones. This continues throughout life to help maximize and maintain bone mass and to minimize the rate of bone loss.
According to USRDA, children between the ages of 1 to 12 years old require 500mg-800mg of calcium per day. The adult requirement is 800mg-1200mg daily.
