Calcium is known for building strong bones. Calcium is also known for reducing blood pressure.
Calcium can also help aid fat loss and prevent fat gain. This is due to the fact that calcium regulates the hormone calcitriol, which causes the body to produce fat and inhibits fat breakdown. When calcium levels are adequate, calcitriol is suppressed. Another way calcium enhances fat loss is by decreasing the amount of fat from your diet that is absorbed by your intestines. Numerous studies have shown that higher calcium intakes are associated with lower body weights and less weight gain over time. Research also shows that calcium can help to specifically reduce the fat around your abdomen.
Baylor College of Medicine, in Houston, Texas, researchers concluded in a 2006 study that increasing calcium intake could lower abdominal fat, particularly in males.
