Guest guest Posted March 6, 2003 Report Share Posted March 6, 2003 I just found this today. Donna Calcium Absorbing Rate of Natural Coral (Experimented on Rats) (44th The Japan Dietetics Society, October 16-17, 1997) The experiment was carried out with 30 rats. As calcium source, four kinds of calcium (natural coral calcium & magnesium (SMP), calcium carbonate, milk calcium, cow-bone calcium) were given as the feed. (Magnesium oxide was combined to the feeds except natural coral calcium & magnesium to equalize the level of magnesium. The ratio of calcium and magnesium is 2:1). After four weeks, organs and blood serum were taken out to measure calcium and magnesium. As a result of the experiment, the natural coral calcium & magnesium group showed a high calcium absorbing rate of 69.6%. Also, high HDL-cholesterol density was shown compared to other groups. Compared to milk calcium (milk), cow-bone calcium, and calcium carbonate, natural coral calcium & magnesium has better use of calcium, and it also shows good figure on fat within blood serum.
