Calcium facts - 99% of the calcium in your body is found in your skeleton and teeth
- 1% remainder is necessary for vital body functions e.g. nerve transmission, muscle contraction, renal function
- Resorption - is the body stealing calcium from our skeletal structure to insure a supply of calcium to these vital functions. Therefore, a deficient dietary intake of calcium will lead to osteoporosis
- Calcium must be obtained from food or through supplementation if we are to avoid conditions like osteoporosis
- Calcium combined with co-factors will ensure optimal absorption - magnesium, vitamin D, zinc, vitamin C, boron, vitamin K, etc.
- Calcium supplements work better when it is tailored to your individual needs
Improved bone health
For calcium to be deposited in the bones it must first be absorbed. Magnesium and vitamin D have been examined extensively for their role in aiding calcium absorption. New research indicates that other co-factors play a significant role as well in calcium absorption: zinc, boron, essential fatty acids and vitamins C, D3, K and E.
Calcium is deposited in your bones
The incoporation of the essential fatty acids (EFA) in the intestinal membranes helps facilitate the transport of calcium and help ensure that calcium is deposited into bone tissue rather than soft tissue, where it can cause dangerous calcifications.
Calcium tens to gravitate towards areas of soft tissue injury in the body, especially the discs between the vertebrae, the arteries and the kidneys. Experts believe calcifications outside the bone, known as ectopic calcifications, may be more dangerous than osteoporosis itself. Several studies have shown that EFAs can help prevent ectopic calcifications by improving calcium absorption, reducing calcium excretion and increasing bone density.
Osteoporosis? More than just Calcium
Preventing and treating osteoporosis requires more than just calcium supplementation. One study showed that the group that was given both calcium and vitamin D along with over 15 vitamins and minerals increased their bone density 2 - 3 times more than the group given just calcium and vitamin D
Boron
Studies on boron and its effects on postmenopausal women found that boron supplementation helped to prevent loss of minerals in the bones.
vitamin K
Vitamin K is needed for bone formation. Recent studies have revealed low levels of Vitamin K may be linked to low bone density. People with osteoporosis have been reported to have low blood levels and low dietary intake of vitamin K. One study found that postmenopausal women could reduce urinary loss of calcium by taking 1 mg of vitamin K per day. People with osteoporosis who have been given large amounts of vitamin K2 (45 mg per day) have shown an increase in bone density after six months and decreased bone loss after one or two years. The average person should not suffer from Vitamin K deficiency since it can be obtained from food or made by friendly bacteria in the intestine. However, those with impaired absorption may benefit from supplementation
Omega Oils
Omega oils, such as evening primrose oil, are important for hormonal balance, especially for women. Omega oils also have been proven to improve the absorption of calcium
Other Functions of Calcium - Calcium is used to activate the enzymes involved in fat and
protein digestion. - Calcium is involved in blood clotting and the transmission of
nerve impulses. - Calcium also regulates the contraction and relaxation of the
muscles, including the heart. - Calcium aids in the absorption of many nutrients, especially B12.
