Total calcium intake and metabolic syndrome in middle aged women, Babol, Iran

The metabolic syndrome is an increasingly common condition, especially in women. The objective was to examine the relationship between total calcium and metabolic syndrome in Babolian middle aged women. A systematic random sampling method was used to select 984 women aged 30-50 years of age from urb...
