I now know that I have a malabsorption issue & am calcium deficient but a deIauer vid I saw showed that majority of calcium supps/powders have Iead in them plus they can cause constipation which it gave me plus heavy bIoating so I stopped taking the powder about a week after I started. I'm buying up good yogurt & cottage chs that I add pineapple to (i do NOT like cottg chs alone lol) - I'm getting mine thru food instead of supplements. Also, AVOID Carageenan in dairy products -

Severe hypocalcemia, defined by a serum calcium <1.9 mmol/L (7.6 mg/dL), is often considered an emergency because of a potential risk of life-threatening cardiac arrhythmias or seizures.

What depletes calcium?
Eating foods that have a lot of salt (sodium) causes your body to lose calcium and can lead to bone loss. Try to limit the amount of processed foods, canned foods and salt added to the foods you eat each day. To learn if a food is high in sodium, look at the Nutrition Facts label.

What stops the body from absorbing calcium?
Many factors, including age, disease states, and medications, can affect calcium absorption. Carbohydrates may enhance calcium absorption while coffee and cigarette smoke may impede it. The best way to get calcium is through food. Many foods are fortified with calcium.

How can I raise my calcium level quickly?
Good sources of calcium include dairy foods like milk, yoghurt and cheese, calcium fortified foods (such as soy products) and, to a lesser degree, some leafy green vegetables and nuts and seeds. If you don't have enough calcium in your diet, you may be at increased risk of developing osteoporosis.

How long does it take to replenish calcium deficiency?
A few weeks of adequate calcium intake should be enough to boost your levels, but again, another blood test is the only way to know for sure.
