Growth rate of longitudinal bone
Length and weight of longitudinal bones of the group who feed Kids·Cal for one month is higher than that of the other
controls. The result showed that feeing RoseCal helps increase bone growth.

Concentration of IGF-1 in serum
IGF-1 (Insulin like factor-1) which is an important factor for bone formation was measured and compared among the
groups. IGF-1 level of the group who feed Kids∙Cal for one month is higher than that of the other controls. The result
showed that feeing Kids∙cal helps enhance the secretion of growth hormone and increase calcium absorption.
