Recent studies show osteoporosis in young women as young as their middle 20's. Is it any wonder that the average American is confused, when most doctors and dieticians have no real knowledge of the causative origin or direction for this widespread affliction. There is obvious evidence that milk, other dairy products and calcium pills are not producing the desired result. Incidence of osteoporosis and other calcium deficiency conditions remains constantly on the rise. We will investigate further, but let's take a moment to look at calcium itself and its function in the human body.
Most people look at calcium only in relation to the bones and teeth.
Calcium, however, is vital to nerve response, muscle control, regulation of heart rhythm, blood pressure and coagulation of the blood upon injury. For all of these functions to continue normally the blood must maintain an exact calcium level. Organic refers to that which exists in a living entity. The calcium in vegetables is organic. Rock minerals, designed to be eaten by plants, not people, are inorganic.
