Q. Do I only need to take calcium to prevent osteoporosis?

A.

Simply consuming calcium isn't enough for it to reach your bones. Vitamin D (from sun exposure) is necessary for its absorption. Additionally, engaging in "weight-bearing exercises" that stimulate the bones is crucial for them to become strong.
