osteoporosis is not a calcium deficiency problem so many people have in their

mind that if i have osteoporosis i need to start drinking a lot of milk

start taking calcium so they start taking like 500 milligrams

of calcium carbonate every day expecting

their osteoporosis to magically go away well there’s some very

interesting data that talks about calcium supplementation

not only not helping you with osteoporosis

or reducing their fractures from osteoporosis

but increasing the risk for heart attacks

and even stroke and i’m going to put some links down below

one study talked about if you took 500 milligrams of calcium every day

it potentially could increase the risk of heart attacks by 30 percent

and risk of getting a stroke by 20 percent

now in a review from 2018 using the routine use of calcium and

vitamin d did not reduce the risk of osteoporotic

fractures but it did increase the risk of kidney

stones now the thing about calcium is that it’s

very very tightly regulated so if you get too much calcium it

becomes very very toxic very similar to too much iron or too

much copper versus other minerals like

magnesium or potassium you can get a lot of that and your body

will get rid of it but not calcium too much calcium is very

toxic to your cells and if you look at certain health

conditions as people get older they’re just filling up with toxic

calcium extra calcium that lodges in their arteries in the joints

thirty percent of the population in the u.s has

calcification in the arteries and there’s a really good test

uh that you can take i’ll put a link down below and it’s called coronary

artery calcification test so that’s a very very good test to predict

overall mortality too much calcium could lead to all sorts

of problems there’s one condition i want to make you aware of milk alkali

syndrome this is a condition where the person is

consuming too much calcium and it could be from

drinking too much milk or taking an antacid

here are the side effects kidney failure death psychosis confusion

dizziness poor appetite and the list goes on and on and on

so what i recommend is you get your calcium from your food as much as

possible and never take calcium carbonate because

your body is a heck of a time absorbing that osteoporosis

is a severe loss of bone mass and density and bone is made from

protein minerals and calcium as well it’s not

just calcium so it’s the whole package osteopenia is

a lesser version of that and then osteomalacia is where the bones

become soft and in a child it’s called rickets

and this is a vitamin d deficiency what’s even more important

than calcium is your vitamin d level is your stress

level too much chronic stress or taking

steroids prednisone for example will destroy the

bones post menopausal women who go through a

lot of stress and go through a lot of menopause

with adrenal stress because now the adrenals have to back up the ovaries

sometimes develop osteoporosis from a combination

of higher levels of cortisol and lower levels of estrogen

so that can cause a loss of bone also if you have digestive issues malabsorption

can create a problem usually because you’re not able to absorb

vitamin d and then you can’t absorb calcium

vitamin d has a purpose of increasing calcium absorption by

20 times so without vitamin d you would have to consume 20 times

the quantity of calcium that doesn’t make sense

vitamin k2 is another vitamin that is ignored this is like

vitally important vitamin k2 has a huge purpose

of making your bones very very strong and solid

to keep the calcium in the bone and keep it out of the arteries and the other

soft tissues so this right here is probably one of the

most important factors in dealing with someone with

osteoporosis the other thing that’s been proven is that regular exercise can

greatly reduce the risk of osteoporosis you want to keep your stress low make

sure you get a lot of sun or you can take vitamin d3 k2

eat very healthy so you can get the minerals from the food

i mean one good source of calcium is leafy greens another source is some

high quality grass-fed organic cheese so in this video i just wanted to increase

your awareness that osteoporosis is not just a calcium

deficiency it’s much more than that and i don’t recommend taking high doses

of what they normally recommend calcium carbonate

because of this problem right here which i’ll put some links down below
