When you think of calcium you tend to think of healthy bones.  And for some reason, we have the perception that women have higher calcium needs than men. The primary role of calcium is to maintain healthy bone structure in the body and is therefore as important for men as for women.

The World Health Organisation recommends a daily intake of 1300mg calcium for both men and women.  Some of the most calcium rich products are dairy products, however, there are also various other food sources that contain calcium.  Even so, meeting the daily limit for calcium just by food intake is a tall order.  This is where a healthy supplement can help.  The supplements should not be used as a replacement for a poor diet, but as a way of supplementing a nutritionally balanced diet.

Your calcium rich food sources include: 230g plain yoghurt (450mg), glass of milk (350mg), cup of cooked spinach (230g), 30g mozzarella (150mg).  Your Herbalife meal replacement, the Formula 1 Nutritional Shake Mix (mixed with 250ml low fat milk) contains 412mg of calcium and the Herbalife Multivitamin (1 tablet) will bring another 167mg of calcium to your diet.  Therefore, if you are following the Herbalife weight loss programme which includes 2 shake meal replacements a day and a daily dosage of Herbalife vitamins (3 a day), you will be adding 1325mg calcium to your diet.

The Herbalife range of products contains various other supplements to improve your healthy lifestyle and wellbeing, as you manage your weight.  Whether your goal is to lose weight, gain weight or just maintain your weight, Herbalife has a programme tailor-made for you.
