TL;DR: The moisture content of the feces ranged between 53 and 92%.

TL;DR: The requirements of calcium, magnesium and phosphorus in Japanese young adults, ranging from 18 to 28 y old, took part in mineral balance studies after written informed consent was obtained, finding that there was not much of a correlation for Ca.

TL;DR: The intakes of the two minerals were positively correlated and the mean value and upper and lower limits of the 95% confidence interval for the regression equation between Intake and Balance for Na, when balance was equal to zero, were 55.824, 60.787 and 50.862 mg/ kg BW/d, respectively.
Positive correlation between dietary intake of sodium and balances of calcium and magnesium in young Japanese adults--low sodium intake is a risk factor for loss of calcium and magnesium--.

TL;DR: Low dietary Na may be a risk factor for maintaining positive balances of Ca and Mg because it is considerably higher than Na requirements estimated by inevitable Na loss.
Estimated equilibrated dietary intakes for nine minerals (Na, K, Ca, Mg, P, Fe, Zn, Cu, and Mn) adjusted by mineral balance medians in young Japanese females.
TL;DR: Estimated equilibrated dietary intakes for nine essential minerals: sodium (Na), potassium (K), calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), phosphorus (P), iron (Fe), zinc (Zn), copper (Cu), and manganese (Mn) are determined using data from 17 human mineral balance studies conducted from 1986 to 2007.
