	The Institute of Medicine (IOM) released dietary guidelines for calcium early in 2011, and the recommended dietary allowance (RDA) for calcium from a combination of diet plus supplements was set at 1000 mg a day for adult women until age 50 years and 1200 mg a day for women older than 50 years of age.
