As documented by many surveys and confirmed in the NHANES reviews, dietary intake
of calcium in adult Americans seldom meets the RDA. Aggravating the deficient intake
of calcium is the inappropriately large intake of phosphate. Failure to achieve equivalence
in these two key nutrients can have deleterious effects on skeletal health.
