Part A: Calcium is an important mineral in the body and one that is tightly regulated in the blood with the help of several hormones. Calcium status plays an important role in the health of bones and a variety of other metabolic functions. Therefore, it is essential to understand where to find calcium in food and what factors affect bioavailability and absorption. Match the words in the left column to the appropriate blanks in the sentences on the right. Note...
