Would a high calcium intake help toward the repair of broken bones?
Alright. Taking calcium AND vitamin D will help toward the repair of broken bones. Vitamin D allows for the absorption of calcium by the digestive system so it can reach the blood and make it’s way to the bones. Also you might not already know this but you should also take Vitamin C. Vitamin C is necessary for creating collagen which is like the scaffolding to which the calcium goes. Make sure you’re also getting phosphorous and magnesium, though these are less important than Calcium, Vitamin D, and Vitamin C because phosphorous and magnesium are trace elements and much less are needed. So this means Orange Juice and Milk. But remember to drink these two things at different times because they are not good together.
