Restoring Calcium Levels In The Blood

Typically, ninety-nine percent of all calcium in the body can be found in the bones and teeth. However, half of all calcium found in the bloodstream is coupled together with proteins, and the kidneys play a vital role in using protein efficiently in the body. One of the kidney's natural functions is to filter just the right amount of calcium out of urine and place it back into the bloodstream. If an individual's body has too high or too low levels of calcium, the results could be general muscle spasms and serious disease or major organ damage and other organs shutting down. To treat this, doctors may recommend an infusion of calcium into the body.
