As milk products are heated, the calcium content decreases.. is this true/false and why?

I am doing a chemistry report and need some answers!


Thanks :DAs milk products are heated, the calcium content decreases.. is this true/false and why?
It will do nothing in regards to calcium content. Why? Because it's a metal element, not a protein you can denature, etc. It's in a ionic form, and wont be evaporating out.





If you were keen on removing the calcium, you'd need to add a something to precipitate it out of solution.
