Many people believe that a lack of calcium in your bones causes osteoporosis. But, there are a few problems with that viewpoint.
People with osteoporosis are at a greater risk of fractures. However, when you start taking calcium, your bones become denser, but you don’t decrease your risk of fractures.
A high amount of calcium in your coronary artery increases your risk of a heart attack. A high CAC score (coronary artery calcification score) is actually one of the best predictors of a heart attack. By dumping more calcium into your body, you could worsen the situation.
We need calcium. But, it’s important to get calcium from the diet, not a supplement. Certain minerals don’t exit the body easily. By taking a calcium supplement, you could end up with excess calcium, which can lead to certain problems.
Top causes of osteoporosis: • Steroids • Low estrogen • Phosphoric acid • Low vitamin D • Malnutrition • PPIs • Gastric bypass • Malabsorption
Potential natural solutions for osteoporosis: • Get your calcium from food • Increase your vitamin D • Increase your vitamin K2 • Increase your vitamin C • Increase your trace minerals • Get an adequate amount of quality protein • Take betaine hydrochloride
