Epidemiologic studies and national nutrient surveys indicate key nutrient deficiencies and inadequacies are widespread, specifically vitamin D, magnesium, and vitamin K. All play dynamic roles in calcium absorption, integration, and administration within the body. Current research estimates that 70% of the US population doesn’t meet estimated average requirements (EAR) for vitamin D; approximately 60% of the US population doesn’t meet EAR for magnesium, and approximately one-third of the US population doesn’t meet EAR for vitamin K. Poor diets, nutrient depletion from medications, and poor intestinal absorption all contribute to insufficient intake of these foundational nutrients.
