Researchers Discover That Magnesium, NOT Calcium, Is The Key To Healthy, Strong Bones

Calcium causes problems when the body is lacking the essential nutrients needed to get calcium out of the bloodstream and into the bones. Those nutrients are vitamins D, K1 and K2, plus silica and boron. I wrote about this here: Vitamins and Minerals for Bone Health and Reduced Risk of Cancer tinyurl.com/hya5dwd , and here: Vitamin K: Unsung and Essential tinyurl.com/yd9l4j3q, with journal references.

One way to tell if you are short these essential nutrients is if calcium gets deposited on the backs of your front teeth. Once I started taking the foregoing I no longer had these calcium deposits. If calcium is getting deposited in your teeth it is likely it is also getting deposited in your arteries, and perhaps causing problems with neurons as well. Calcium deposits in the arteries are an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease aside from lipid status.

Look up vitamin k2. It suppose to help transport calcium away from the soft tissues to the bone. Fat is require since K and K2 are fat soluble vitamin.
