Frequently Asked Questions:
Why isn't calcium in Cooper Complete multivitamins?
Calcium requirements are dependent upon both gender and age. Because Cooper Complete multivitamins are formulated for men and women, it was best to leave calcium out of the formula.
Why do you offer two different calcium products?
Choice. Research indicates long-term, daily calcium intake is required to best promote bone health. Bone health doesn't seem to differ based on the way someone consumes calcium - whether by eating calcium-rich foods or taking different types of calcium supplements. Given that, we offer a tablet form and a chewable form.
How much calcium do I need?
Adult women under age 50 are advised to consume 1,000 mg of calcium daily, while women 50 and over should get 1,200 to 1,500 mg per day (1,200 mg for those on estrogen; 1,500 mg for those not on estrogen). Women 65 and older should consume 1,500 mg calcium on a daily basis.
What are calcium-rich foods?
Calcium-rich foods include fortified tofu, canned salmon and dairy products. Calcium-fortified juices, cereals and breads are also available. Broccoli, spinach, kale and brussels sprouts also contain calcium, but at lower levels.
If you drink milk to get your calcium, keep in mind that one cup (eight ounces) typically has about 300 mg of calcium. So, you'll need to drink between three and five cups daily to meet the calcium requirements.
