Calcium supplements may boost weight loss, data show

Data from seven clinical trials found that calcium supplements can help people lose a little more weight, about 3 pounds a year, according to a study in Nutrition Reviews. Researchers from the University of Exeter in the U.K. suggested that calcium may be linked to a decrease in vitamin D, which can lead to the breakdown of fat, or it may promote oxidation of fat that leads to removing calories from the body.
