Explanation:

Calcium and vitamin D are needed by the body in order to build strong and dense bones as well as strong and healthy teeth. In addition to building bones and keeping them healthy, calcium enables our blood to clot, aids muscles contraction, as well as the beating of the heart.

Vitamin D is needed by the body for the absorption of calcium from food. The main sources of vitamin D is from the reaction of the skin on exposure to sunlight. Vitamin D is also found in food and supplements.

When the body lacks vitamin D and calcium, there will be poor development of bones and teeth. This results in low bone mass and a high incidence of fractures. In the elderly, it a common cause of osteoporosis and rickets in children. Such individuals will require additional supplements of these nutrients.

if your boyfriend is cheating on you, my best advice to you is to dump him, he's only going to drag you down. and if you do, don't fret there's plenty better that know how to treat a person right. i mean honestly, the whole point of a romantic relationship is love, and if you love someone you aren't going to cheat on them. i do believe in second chances, but why would he cheat in the first place? i personally feel that if someone cheats, they ruin any chance they wanted/had with you. i wish you the best of luck with this, hang in there.
