A Health Tip from Barbara M. Dixon

From: ``Good Health for African Americans,'' By Barbara M. Dixon. Page: 178; Paragraph # Six:

``Keeping calcium in balance is tricky because the body needs so much and yet the mineral is easily depleted.  Over consumption of alcohol, caffeine, and refined sugars can decrease calcium absorption and contribute to bone loss. So can too much fiber or excessive protein intake.''
