A member asked:
Do chicken eggs have enough calcium to be absorbed and help your bone density increase?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes but: All calcium can help your bones if combined with appropriate intake of vitamin d and proper exercise. There's nothing special about where the calcium comes from - just that it's calcium.
