Quick takeaways

  • Regular joint movement and reducing inflammation through measures like vitamin D and omega-3 fatty acids can help prevent or address calcium buildup.
  • Maintaining a slightly alkaline pH balance in the body is crucial, as alkalosis can cause calcium to come out of solution and deposit on tissues. Acidifying agents like apple cider vinegar and betaine hydrochloride can help restore optimal pH levels.

Causes and Solutions for Calcium Deposits in the Body

Calcium deposits in the body can occur in various tissues, such as bones, joints, teeth, arteries, brain, breast tissue, skin, eyes, and nerves. While the exact cause of calcium deposits is often unknown (idiopathic), certain factors contribute to their formation. Scar tissue, inflammation from injury or surgery, and immobilization of joints can lead to the accumulation of calcium deposits. Regular joint movement and reducing inflammation through measures like vitamin D and omega-3 fatty acids can help prevent or address calcium buildup. Additionally, maintaining a slightly alkaline pH balance in the body is crucial, as alkalosis can cause calcium to come out of solution and deposit on tissues. Acidifying agents like apple cider vinegar and betaine hydrochloride can help restore optimal pH levels.
