A member asked:
Does chewing the bone (like when you eat pork chops) help you get more calcium?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: And you may damage your teeth. If you have been determined by testing to be calcium deficient, or to have osteoporosis, a Rheumatologist can help you with calcium rich diet, supplements, and bone strengthening exercises.
