In this video, we’re going to talk about calcium deficiency. Here are some of the symptoms of calcium deficiency:
•Back pain
•Neck pain
•Bone pain
•Poor posture
•Muscle cramps
•Joint pain

Although calcium deficiency is usually caused by the diet, it can also be caused by hypoparathyroidism, certain medications, or low stomach acid. If you have low stomach acid, you might have trouble absorbing adequate calcium.

If you have an allergy or intolerance to dairy, you could end up calcium deficient. Vegetable sources of calcium like spinach are high in phytic acid, which depletes calcium. Caffeine and diets high in sugar also deplete calcium.

If you’re experiencing some of the symptoms of calcium deficiency, try taking calcium orotate. Calcium orotate is an excellent form of calcium because the orotate helps the calcium penetrate deep within the cells. It’s best to take calcium with magnesium because they work synergistically.

You saved me with this …I started taking Calcium and after the first day the lump in my throat sensation went completely away ! And the acid reflux has dramatically decreased after all these years on the purple pill 🤦🏽‍♀️

[PhilipMcAdam]

Had both ends of this spectrum. In that I suffered both too much and not enough at different times of my life. Again doctors never mentioned anything about calcium so all I got was expensive pain killers. Again thanks again Dr Berg for all you super advice.

If you are allergic to cheese, try eating goat or sheep cheese instead. They produce a much less inflammatory type of casein protein (type 2) that is often times tolerable to those with a dairy allergy (such as myself). The milk produced by most cows contains type 1 casein which is not only highly inflammatory but it contains an opioid substance called bcm7 which makes it addictive, carcinogenic, etc. Some species of cows DO produce type 2 casein proteins but you must seek out dairy products that have those.

I’m allergic to all dairy and nuts! Chocolate as well 😞. I don’t drink alcohol or consume sugar. I eat very healthy. In fact, I ate an avocado & sardines for lunch. I have had osteopenia for many yrs. I recently got some calcium citrate powder and the severe elbow pain and bone pain in that arm went away, like magic! I couldn’t hardly use that arm for the last 2 yrs. I also take calm & I eat very large salads & dark greens . I’m 57 yrs old and I’ve exercised my whole life so I believe in staying fit. I’ve been in menopause since my 30s due to a hysterectomy. I’ve been taking a D3 supplement for yrs as I was deadly deficient & it could of killed me… I’m thinking that since a lot of my bone pain throughout my body has gotten less that was the problem. I’ve only been taking it for about a month so I’m hoping for more improvement! When I use to touch my shins it was painful, but less now. I’m also hoping that I get some jaw & teeth bone back… I have hope!
Thx Dr Berg!

All my calcium is in the wrong place. Taking tons of K2 now and things are starting to break up, I no longer wake up as an old Pretzel.

[videnz]

when i drink milk it seems to calm me down really fast i feel almost zen like a sense of peace

Hey Eric can you please make a video about GABA neurotransmitters and how their absence result in anxiety panic attacks?

[robertmckeown]

Don't forget vitamin K2 (m4 and m7) and Boron puts the calcium were it needs to be.

I just love how informative this is and you can replay it because it is not a 10-min long video. Thanks doc :)

I could listen to you all day, you are a real life wizard 💫

Professor Emeritus Martin Pall wrote an excellent paper explaining one of the primary mechanisms of harm from exposure to microwave radiation from cell phones. It is related to voltage-gated calcium channels. EMFs impact these calcium channels that release calcium into the cell. Calcium causes nitric oxide release and combines with superoxide, thereby creating perioxinitrate, which is a massive producer of hydroxyl free radicals, the most destructive free radical known. Regular exposure to EMFs can actually poison your cells more than ionizing radiation from X-rays. @drberg

What do you think about this

Hi Eric! Just discovered you and love your innovative approach to healing. I’m a 56 yr old mother of 5, and have had multiple injuries as a child that have led to nearly complete, sudden incapacitation after dealing with excruciating hip pain for a decade. I had a minor scoliosis in my mid back, a turned sacrum, and neck injuries (rear ended and falls, fall on tailbone as child) ...I was lifting a 5 gallon water jug when something “popped” in my spine, and now my x-rays show L-5 greatly displaced, my hips and sacrum completely distorted, and now am told I have severe scoliosis and basically that’s the way it’s going to stay.
It seems to me that if my vertebrae slid off suddenly, it could just as reasonably be put back suddenly...with traction and the correct pressure applied...same with my hips. I’m in Spokane, WA...do you know of anyone here who’s got the potential to help me?

Now you need to do a video on CALCIUM DEPOSITED IN YOUR SOFT TISSUE because of BORON DEFICIENCY.

Thank you so much Dr. Berg - This is exactly what I am going through right now. I have Neck & joint pains but will get the calcium and magnesium.🤞🏼

[barbie]

Hi Dr. Berg. Is itching also a symptom? I have all the symptoms plus random itchy hands and feet sometimes. Also, is LONG withdrawal from Cannabis a thing? Like long Covid?

[Frigger]

I can’t get enough of yoghurt and European cheeses. I took One pill of calcium orotate and I feel the difference. So, am I not absorbing it from yoghurt ? Very low on Vit. D and fixing that too.

[apj]

Dr. Berg in his other videos says never take calcium and magnesium together, but in this video he says do take them together. Which one is it?

[Teazer]

Dr Eric, can you make a video about Zinc and other minerals?

[Kuruflower]

I took alot of Airborne, thinking 'electrolytes'. It has no calcium. It affected my heart. I wound up in the ER with crazy heart beats. Stayed 2 days, doctor figured it out.
