Ca(2+) — decreases all-cause mortality
Evidence strength: moderate.Findingreplicated ×4“Compared with the lowest quartile (<458 mg/d for men, <417 mg/d for women), the highest quartile of dietary calcium intake (>762 mg/d for men, >688 mg/d for women) had a significantly reduced risk of all-cause mortality (HR=0.63, 95% CI=0.49-0.81, P trend<0.001) and an insignificant decreased risk of CVD mortality (HR=0.70, 95% CI=0.41-1.21, P trend=0.228) in the age and sex adjusted models.”
