Just as a caution to anyone who might be on one of those high-protein plans or just someone who eats a lot of animal protein. The body uses calcium to help process the protein - this is why drinking milk isn't really a viable source of calcium. So if you're in the habit of consuming a lot of protein (and a lot of people get much much more than they actually need), be really sure that you are getting enough calcium in your diet as well, otherwise the body could eventually leech it directly from the bones. Just a little FYI. in health, rachel~ The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it and ignorance may deride it, but in the end there it is.
