Description
From the preface of the book:
Calcium plays a very important role in building strong bones and healthy teeth. Though one should ideally start building up calcium reserves right from childhood, it is never too late to catch up. “Calcium – Rich Recipes”, my latest book in the Total Health Series, is meant to increase awareness about calcium and also provides a variety of 36 recipes using calcium-rich ingredients.
A unique feature of the book is the chart providing calcium requirements for people of different ages, right from infants to senior citizens. The recipes too are divided into three sections in keeping with the chart. Thus you have Calcium-Rich Recipes for Kids, Adults and Senior Citizens.
To give a clearer idea about what a lack of calcium can mean to our bodies, I have included a section on ‘Calcium Deficiency’. Of course, the rest of the book goes on to tell you just how to prevent and overcome this deficiency with a calcium-rich diet.
