October 2008 in “Trace Elements and Electrolytes” In this study, perimenopausal women with initially high hair concentrations of calcium, magnesium, and silicon experienced a decrease in these elements after intermittent dietary supplementation with calcium, magnesium, silicon, and vitamin D.
The authors of this study concluded that higher calcium levels in hair may indicate early metabolic changes leading to osteopenia or osteoporosis in menopausal women, even before detectable by standard DEXA imaging.
This study found that calcium, magnesium, and vitamin D supplementation altered hair calcium and magnesium content in perimenopausal women, suggesting an early indicator of metabolic changes linked to skeletal mineralization.
