Can men take Os-Cal?
Yes, men can certainly take Os-Cal. Approximately 25 million American women suffer from osteoporosis and its potential pain and disfigurement, and another one-third to one-half of postmenopausal women are at risk. Although 80% of those who have osteoporosis are women, men are at risk, too. In fact, five million American men now suffer from osteoporosis. We all need calcium, and it’s difficult to get what you need solely from your diet. It is generally recommended that adult men and women need about 1,000-1,500 mg of calcium each day, which would require drinking a little over three 8-ounce glasses of milk. Please ask your doctor about your individual requirements.
