The Doctors explain why too much or too little calcium, like any other vitamin or supplement, can have dangerous side effects.

[@Asblomma]

NEVER talk to your doctor! About anything. EVER!

[@zahiz2862]

Why

[@maryajones3147]

The more you tell them, they have a prescription for it. Some things can be handled naturally and nearly free in your garden.

[@behealthybehappywithsisi675]

Good said

[@annabellsaavedra4546]

My husband has been diagnosed with this risk, what can I do to help him reduce it?

[@LSMG2004]

Love how none of these doctors cared to respond to this video

[@hopehope5314]

Doctors don’t really care

[@jlall4467]

What if you cut up the supplement and have it several times a day?

[@arieltaylormo3111]

You need vitamins d3 and k2

[@geraldinemcardle2418]

@Stealthmann very wrong information definitely look up Dr Berg on K2 it's brilliant for the heart

[@equipolosantrax57]

I was diagnosed with celiac disease on april of 2018 they did a bone density test on november of 2018 then November 2019 on november 2018 my Gastreologist told me to take 1,200 mg of calcium because of my bone density test results i didn't take the calcium i don't drink milk or eat cheese no calcium friendly foods. On November 2019 i went back for the bone density test and results were exactly the same as 2018, but o started taking the 1,200 mg of calcium with 2500ui vitamin d3 and i drink a 16oz glass of milk everyday with cereal and i did a 24hr urine test 3 days ago my calcium in the uirne came out at 323.0 mg

[@yvonnemckay7287]

I stopped calcium supplements just took a multi vitamin and a lot of d3 and k2 and still have a high calcium level of 10.9

[@nsls8223]

That's your problem there. Stop taking the d3 and only take the k2. D3 absorbs calcium like crazy.

[@jessicamcfarling6470]

have your parathyroid checked, that happened to me

[@marthacourtney2194]

I just find out that my calcium level is elevated, I wasn’t taking any vitamins with a lot calcium, I don’t like plain milk only sometimes in cereal or in oatmeal shakes, coffee , but never plain milk 🥛 Dr did a blood check My calcium is high,she’s checking on- PTH Hormones, Parathyroid gland is elevated my calcium , Ask you Dr.

[@saints3824]

The dumb part is they dont actually tell you what would be more adequate daily, instead argue that 1,400mg is too much but only cause the study findings suggested high risk at these doses.

[@louisedgar8949]

Don’t parathyroid cause high calcium levels. ???

[@YTistooannoying]

Joan Stepp people can have normal calcium levels and still have hyperparathyrodism but it is more common to have raised calcium. Your case is not the norm and are YOU a doctor? What gives YOU the authority to say hyperparathyrodism does not cause elevated calcium? My doctor tells me it does, are you going to argue with him? Do you have elevated parathyroid hormone? That is where the hyper in hyperparathyrodism comes from. If your PTH is not elevated you do not have hyperparathyrodism pure and simple. Having hypercalciemia and high PTHis primary hyperparathyrodism. Because the function of the PTH hormone it is highly unlikely you have elevated levels ans hypocalcemia because elevated PTH tells the body to pull calcium from the bones and into the blood stream. This is ALL information straight from my doctor. It is more likely that you have low pth aka hypoparathyroid because of your hypocalceimia. Some of the symptoms of both disorders are confusion and sometimes even dementia, so rather than accuse you of being a troll, I think you are just confused.

[@YTistooannoying]

Joan Stepp this isnt about you and what you do or do not have. It is about your dangerous assertion that the parathyroid glad cannot cause high blood calcium. I don't care if you had this argument 5 years ago. I have every right to dispute your stupid assertions. The parathyroid gland controls calcium. Yes. The parathyroid gland can cause high calcium. (I believe that was the original question to which you said no it doesn't..which is dangerously wrong). It is that simple! Why? Because that is the gland that controls calcium. It can cause high calcium or in your case cause low calcium (low calcium is hypOparathyroidism). End of story. Primary HypERparathyrodism is high calcium in the blood caused by a parathyroid tumor which is causing the gland to put out too much parathyroid hormone causing high blood calcium levels. That is it. Easy. MY doctor is Dr. Jim Norman, he is the foremost authority on hyperparathyrodism. He has performed thousands of parathyroid surgeries and as published articles in the New England Journal of Med as well as other Medical Journals as well as performed many studies. You can look up everything he says here on youtube, just look up Norman Parathyroid. I have seen half a dozen doctors on the issue and thoughly vetted my sources. You are not a doctor so were do Y-O-U get off making spurious claims as though Y-O-U are some sort of authority. Either you are terribly confused you Y-O-U-R doctor is a quack... i dont give a shit what you *think* you have. Either you are a troll or you are suffering from dementia. I didn't put words in your mouth, you said them well enough yourself. Either way, keep talking your absolute ignorance is entertaining. We all want to see you continue to make an utter fool of yourself. 😄😄😄😄 I even know your reply, it will be some variation of "No you are" and insulting my Dr etc etc etc blah blah blah. However, high calcium can be life threatening and I take exception to people spreading misinformation To clarify the point. You said, "No" when someone asked, "does the parathyroid cause high calcium. Yes. In your case is causes low calcium, but you are not everyone, Joan. It isn't about you. You. Don't. Know. Shit!

[@dwayneseftel3297]

yes if you have hyperparathyroid

[@drunkinmonkieez]

@Leah's Agape Love Were your albumin levels high too?

[@alibahmansaralani7414]

What if i have high calcium but normal pth?

[@bobGmitter]

Need magnesium

[@marilynjones532]

why can't they straighten this out? if you have a high calcium level you need. more calcium citrate to put the calcium back in your bones with vitamin d.

[@novrahadi8568]

Calcium kills.

[@venusdemilo3378]

What do doctors know!!!!!!!! Nothing! coming from a sufferer.

[@dendenc2046]

My calcium is too high. I need to stop eating calcium rich vegetables / nuts ? My ferritin is also low..

[@cokefishtail]

Get parathyroid checked have a bad parathyroid. Check out parathyroid drs in sarosota florida..

[@jessicamcfarling6470]

why are you not investigating parathyroid.

[@riccia888]

so that means caltrate is bad for human?

[@alexanderpoptodorov8123]

Again, another proof of the incompetence of conventional physicians!

[@michaelh7527]

It really isn't that physicians are incompetent. Most are very good. But they are terrified of being sued. They have standards of which most are outdated. If they go outside these standards and something goes wrong. Then you have a blood sucking tv lawyer all over you. I have a friend who is a doctor. He tells me about this stuff. He says there are many things he wants to do differently. But if you prescribe something and it puts one blood test level out of the accepted range, you can loose your license or not be insurable. I am in no way saying you are an idiot. But the issue is much deeper than just saying doctors are incompetent.

[@alexanderpoptodorov8123]

@@michaelh7527 That might be so with pharmaceutical agents and medical procedures, but unless the physician has taken upon themselves to get properly trained in holistic, functional and integrative medicine specializing in nutrition, they have no competency or business prescribing nutritional advice, let alone nutraceutical advice.

[@michaelh7527]

@@alexanderpoptodorov8123 I understand your frustrations and what you are saying. But doctors are really restricted more than you know. I don't know what you do for work. But I am sure you have rules and procedures at work. I am sure you probably have ideas that are better and more effecient than upper management. But, if you do things your way. You risk losing your job.

[@alexanderpoptodorov8123]

@@michaelh7527 No one is arguing about their restrictions. I have friends that are MDs and first hand know what they have to deal with. This is not the argument here! But that doesn't change the fact. I am a natural health doctor, an ND, and I do things my way that are best for my patients!

[@michaelh7527]

@@alexanderpoptodorov8123 That is fantastic you are doing things your way. But you are treating people through diet and vitamins.... BIG difference from using pharmaceutical drugs.

Too much calcium is bad
