Although calcium intake is important throughout a lifetime it is crucial to adolescents and young adults, ages 11-26 especially in females. In the younger years bones are still growing and adequate calcium is imperative to a healthy deposition level. Bones become less dense after this crucial life stage and any calcium the body needs it takes from the bones if it is not supplied in the diet. Therefore the most efficient stage in a life cycle to absorb calcium is during the growth period, being adolescent and young adult years.
