Calcium and Kidney stones

Higer levels of calcium could lead to kidney stones and cancer .

Stones are caused by less fluids intake and non bioavailable calcium being taken into our bodies.

Studies have shown that diets high in salts can cause higher occurances of stones.

Coffee intake more than normal, ie 1 cup a day and certain teas with high caffiene can also cause calcium loss from the bones.

High Levels of calcium helps to reduce Hypertension and helps control blood pressure.

Avoid products that are processed with high salts such as soya sauce and chilli as these can leach calcium from our bones and lead to osteoporosis.
