Better fat loss from increasing calcium intake
Better fat loss from increasing calcium intake - - by Paul Cribb, B.H.Sci HMS - - AST Director of Research - - Source: http://www.ast-ss.com
Epidemiologic data suggest that people with high calcium intake have a lower body fat and better insulin function. Direct studies on mice have demonstrated that calcium intake influences fat metabolism. High calcium intake depresses levels of particular hormones that cause a decrease in intracellular calcium which in turn inhibit lipogenesis (fat accumulation) and stimulating lipolysis (fat burning). The direct and indirect evidence suggests that a high calcium intake helps a person get lean and stay lean.
The research on calcium and body fat also suggests that calcium from dairy proteins has more of a beneficial effect than calcium from dietary supplements.

This would explain the commercials saying that increased dairy servings increase fat loss better than exercise. This would also be a good way to mix in a protein shake with milk for those looking to bulk and increase calcium intake.

True. The smart thing to do is if you were to eat something that were low in calcium and now because you are aware of the research done above you switch to something of high calcium content, then you gain overall (assuming calory intake is similar, etc.)
