Guest guest Posted December 7, 2002 Report Share Posted December 7, 2002 Ron, I think someone was indirectly raising the question the other day of whether taking calcium could be appropriate if there is calcification of soft tissues. It has been known for decades that calcification is caused by excess phosphates or vitamin D or both. Otherwise, excess calcium is readily excreted. Although I have known this as a theory from the start, it wasn't until I found out that Dr St Amand had been telling his patients all along to take calcium to help get rid of calphos deposits that I was brave enough to try it and it worked! The problem is really linguistic. Calcification is an accumulation of calcium phosphate. If it was called phosphication, no-one would have a problem. While writing, perhaps I could just repeat that I am not claiming any insights into tackling fluorosis, though calcium is said to help rid the body of metals, for what that's worth.
