Abstract

Twelve months of a consistent average daily intake of calcium to at least the 1200-mg Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) was achieved by 22 adolescent girls. At the end of the year the calcium-enriched group showed no significant differences in body composition, bone mass, or bone density from peers consuming an average of 728 mg of calcium.
