“Where do I get my calcium?” was the question I’d often get before they discovered a test to check for Vitamin D3. . .”Well”, I’d say, “if you’re taking a calcium supplement is it the right one for you? Is it absorbable? Are the other minerals that are needed to process calcium in the body at good levels? (phosphorus, boron, magnesium, zinc) Do you need something natural because you have kidney issues? What form do you need?” 

If you take the wrong form, the wrong dose or overdose and take it when you don’t need calcium it can build up at arteriosclerosis, bone spurs, or kidney/gallstones and possibly bladder stones. It’s complicated and the reason why I try not to address it. 

There are so many factors to take into account. I believe though, that the body will tell us what it needs, in which form it needs it and how much. So I use a list to test from. Now some of these calciums are not used in the food system but that doesn’t mean that you’re not exposed to them in other ways (like in sprays or additives or in cement dust even!) and if the body thinks it already has calcium it won’t easily take up a more natural calcium. . .then everything gets more messed up. That’s why I spend so much time asking SO many questions during that first consult. All the pieces of the puzzle need to fit together. So, here’s a list of calciums:
