Calcium Tips
What is Calcium for??
Calcium is essential for all vital functions of the human body. It helps to build bones and teeth as well as functions in the continual repair and maintenance of bones and teeth.
It also helps with all muscle action and heart activity. It calms the nerves and relaxes muscle spasms especially those in the legs. Calcium helps maintain a balance between sodium (Na), potassium (K) and Magnesium (Mg).
It is of extreme importance for normal blood clotting and many enzyme functions. Calcium helps speed the healing processes of the body in general.
Calcium is best absorbed and assimilated in the evening/night hours.
Best Natural Sources;

2nd - Dark leafy vegetables and most raw vegetables, endive, lettuce, watercress, kale cabbage, and dandelion.
3rd - Dairy products – often thought of as the best although the body also robs itself of Calcium to aid and buffer the acid created during tedious digesting of milk solids, thus you are really robbing Peter to pay Paul.
