Trends in calcium intake and major food sources, 2007-2016
Calcium deficiency is the traditional nutrition problem in Korea. In both of men and women, the ratios of calcium intake compared to the recommended nutrient intake were lower than 70%. Because the consumption of vegetable and milk, the major sources of calcium intake, was not improved, calcium deficiency could be more severe (Figure A).
