No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This randomised trial will investigate the effect of calcium supplementation on bone and calcium metabolism in women during acute load carriage exercise. This study will test the hypothesis that calcium supplementation before load carriage exercise will attenuate the decline in serum ionised calcium and increase in parathyroid hormone and bone resorption.
