Abstract

Calcium plays an esssential role in the regulation of many metabolic processes. It is also necessary for the development and maintenance of the skeletal framework which supports and allows strenous physical activity. In general, the overall calcium status of the athlete will reflect the net balance between calcium losses and calcium gains.
