摘要

TLDRThe video discusses a significant regret of the speaker who previously recommended high doses of calcium (1,200 to 2,000 mg) for bone health, particularly to postmenopausal women with osteopenia or osteoporosis. However, current research indicates that excess calcium can lead to increased risks of heart attacks, strokes, and general mortality due to calcification in the arteries. The speaker now emphasizes the importance of vitamin C, recommending high therapeutic doses to aid in bone health. Vitamin C deficiency can lead to conditions like scurvy, negatively impacting collagen production and bone integrity. Additionally, elements like magnesium and vitamin K2 are highlighted for their roles in improving calcium management and preventing calcification outside bones. The speaker advises against excessive calcium supplementation and suggests alternative strategies involving dietary adjustments and mineral intake.

    The speaker regrets previously recommending 1200-2000 mg of calcium for bone health, particularly in postmenopausal women. Recent studies show excess calcium can increase the risk of heart attacks and strokes. Calcium is often found in excess outside the bones, leading to artery calcification in adults over 45. Calcium's role isn't limited to bone health; it also facilitates cellular processes. An overload of intracellular calcium can lead to cellular damage. Moreover, the use of calcium channel blockers, aimed at reducing high blood pressure, shows benefits in lowering mortality and managing chronic diseases like ALS, Parkinson's, and Alzheimer's.

    so there's one really big regret that I
  • 00:00:02
    have in practice that I wish I had the
  • 00:00:06
    information that I had now back then
  • 00:00:09
    because the advice I gave on this one
  • 00:00:11
    topic was very bad advice I used to
  • 00:00:14
    recommend 12200 milligrams of calcium to
  • 00:00:16
    people especially postmenopausal women
  • 00:00:19
    for bone health okay and especially if
  • 00:00:22
    they had any type of osteopenia or
  • 00:00:26
    osteoporosis I mean check this out if
  • 00:00:28
    you have someone with osteopor rosis
  • 00:00:31
    obviously they're missing calcium in the
  • 00:00:33
    bone that's true almost every
  • 00:00:37
    osteoporotic person without exception
  • 00:00:40
    also at the same time has
  • 00:00:43
    excess calcium outside their bone in 15
  • 00:00:48
    independent clinical trials they found
  • 00:00:51
    an increased risk 30% for heart attacks
  • 00:00:54
    a 20% increase in Strokes just by taking
  • 00:00:58
    an extra 500 100 Mig of calcium per day
  • 00:01:02
    in another study involving 61,000 people
  • 00:01:06
    over 19 years there was a pretty strong
  • 00:01:09
    correlation between people taking over
  • 00:01:11
    1,400 mg of calcium per day and a
  • 00:01:16
    114% increase in dying from heart
  • 00:01:20
    attacks you just go to the store and and
  • 00:01:22
    look at the vitamin bottles right look
  • 00:01:24
    at the one a days what's the first
  • 00:01:26
    ingredient calcium carbonate notice how
  • 00:01:29
    heavy that bottle is because most of
  • 00:01:31
    that product is calcium carbonate you're
  • 00:01:34
    basically eating rocks I mean when you
  • 00:01:35
    think about how is that affecting the
  • 00:01:37
    heart how is it affecting the tissues
  • 00:01:38
    with all this calcium onethird of all
  • 00:01:40
    adults in America over the age of
  • 00:01:43
    45 have some type of calcification in
  • 00:01:46
    their arteries so this idea that if we
  • 00:01:48
    just take calcium and'll go right to the
  • 00:01:50
    bones is not true yes we have the
  • 00:01:53
    calcium in the bone but also calcium has
  • 00:01:56
    other functions especially all the
  • 00:01:58
    different communication between the
  • 00:02:00
    cells use calcium you have the
  • 00:02:03
    intracellular calcium and you have the
  • 00:02:05
    extracellular calcium outside in fact
  • 00:02:08
    you have a lot more extracellular
  • 00:02:09
    calcium you have a thousand to 10,000
  • 00:02:12
    times more extracellular calcium right
  • 00:02:15
    here than inside your cell and so when
  • 00:02:18
    this cell builds up too much
  • 00:02:19
    intracellular calcium it commits suicide
  • 00:02:23
    and check out this next Point calcium
  • 00:02:25
    accumulation is an independent factor of
  • 00:02:29
    risk of all cause mortality and check
  • 00:02:32
    this out people that are taking calcium
  • 00:02:34
    channel blockers normally you probably
  • 00:02:36
    know they're taking it for high blood
  • 00:02:38
    pressure but did you know that it
  • 00:02:40
    creates other effects it can also help
  • 00:02:43
    improve chronic diseases including you
  • 00:02:46
    know ALS Parkinson's
  • 00:02:48
    Alzheimer's it can decrease the risk
  • 00:02:50
    from coronary artery spasm and Gina
  • 00:02:54
    there's one study that shows that taking
  • 00:02:57
    calcium channel blockers decreases the
  • 00:03:00
    risk of all cause mortality what does
  • 00:03:03
    this tell you about calcium in our
  • 00:03:05
    bodies but the point is that this drug
  • 00:03:08
    has multiple effects that go beyond just
  • 00:03:11
    blood pressure which is very interesting
  • 00:03:13
    so since we're on the topic of
  • 00:03:14
    osteoporosis or bone loss and what
  • 00:03:17
    should you do instead of taking massive
  • 00:03:19
    amounts of just calcium and trying to
  • 00:03:21
    fix that if you ever look up the
  • 00:03:24
    condition called
  • 00:03:25
    scurvy which is an advanced vitamin C
  • 00:03:29
    defici efficiency and you read all of
  • 00:03:32
    the side effects of scurvy you're going
  • 00:03:35
    to see one of them called bone
  • 00:03:37
    resorption so in other words a severe
  • 00:03:40
    vitamin C deficiency causes calcium to
  • 00:03:44
    Lee out from your bone another symptom
  • 00:03:47
    of scurvy is decreased synthesis of
  • 00:03:51
    collagen synthesis means the production
  • 00:03:54
    of something I mean think about what
  • 00:03:56
    bone really is a lot of it's collagen
  • 00:03:58
    protein and so if you don't have enough
  • 00:04:01
    vitamin C you can't make that collagen
  • 00:04:03
    another symptom of scurvy is something
  • 00:04:06
    called Osteo liis what does that mean
  • 00:04:10
    that means the destruction of bone
  • 00:04:13
    another symptom is osteon necrosis
  • 00:04:16
    that's a similar thing that means death
  • 00:04:18
    of your bone as I continue down the list
  • 00:04:21
    of scurvy I also found
  • 00:04:24
    osteopenia as well as
  • 00:04:26
    osteoporosis I also found another side
  • 00:04:28
    effect of oxid of stress AKA a lot of
  • 00:04:33
    inflammation and the last side effect
  • 00:04:35
    that I found which was very revealing is
  • 00:04:40
    calcification outside the bone and so
  • 00:04:44
    what would be the remedy for osteopenia
  • 00:04:46
    or
  • 00:04:47
    osteoporosis well one big thing that I
  • 00:04:49
    would recommend is therapeutic doses of
  • 00:04:52
    vitamin C and as I did a deep dive into
  • 00:04:55
    this topic you're not going to be able
  • 00:04:56
    to fix your osteoporosis or osteop just
  • 00:05:00
    by normal amounts of vitamin C you're
  • 00:05:04
    not going to even create a dent into
  • 00:05:05
    that problem you may need to use another
  • 00:05:08
    type of vitamin C so you can use
  • 00:05:10
    ascorbic acid or another one that might
  • 00:05:13
    be good is magnesium ascorbate why
  • 00:05:16
    because the Magnesium is really good to
  • 00:05:18
    help lower the
  • 00:05:21
    pathogenic calcification problem that
  • 00:05:24
    we're trying to deal with here and the
  • 00:05:25
    amounts that I would recommend of this
  • 00:05:27
    vitamin C would be minimally 6,00 000
  • 00:05:30
    milligram per day now uh there's a lot
  • 00:05:33
    of research on this not just for
  • 00:05:35
    osteoporosis for other things but 6,000
  • 00:05:39
    plus so some people need to go a lot
  • 00:05:42
    higher okay now I would recommend
  • 00:05:44
    breaking it up into two or four doses
  • 00:05:47
    and one way to determine if you're
  • 00:05:48
    taking too much is if you have diarrhea
  • 00:05:51
    okay because that's one of the side
  • 00:05:52
    effects so you want to take a certain
  • 00:05:54
    amount until maybe your stools are loose
  • 00:05:57
    and then back off a little bit having
  • 00:05:58
    enough vitamin C can suppress the cells
  • 00:06:02
    that break down your bone and those
  • 00:06:04
    cells are called osteoclasts and having
  • 00:06:07
    enough vitamin C can help the absorption
  • 00:06:11
    of calcium in your bone and this is that
  • 00:06:13
    regret is when I used to recommend these
  • 00:06:15
    calcium supplements I don't recommend
  • 00:06:17
    that okay now you can get enough calcium
  • 00:06:20
    just from a little bit of cheese but the
  • 00:06:22
    point is if you have excess soft tissue
  • 00:06:25
    calcium you don't want to be guzzling
  • 00:06:28
    gallons of milk all day long
  • 00:06:30
    definitely not the calcium supplements
  • 00:06:32
    ant acids now I'm not telling you not to
  • 00:06:34
    take your an acids but an acids a lot of
  • 00:06:36
    times involve taking calcium and then
  • 00:06:39
    you're going to neutralize the stomach
  • 00:06:40
    acid which helps you absorb calcium
  • 00:06:43
    check with your doctor to see if you
  • 00:06:44
    really need to take that an acid it may
  • 00:06:47
    be contributing to your extracellular
  • 00:06:51
    extra calcium problem that you have and
  • 00:06:53
    don't forget about the Magnesium
  • 00:06:54
    magnesium is a natural calcium channel
  • 00:06:57
    blocker also vitamin K2
  • 00:07:00
    a K2 deficiency is the most reliable
  • 00:07:03
    predictor of vascular
  • 00:07:06
    calcification and of course if you're
  • 00:07:08
    dealing with osteopenia or osteoporosis
  • 00:07:10
    a good trace mineral complex would be
  • 00:07:13
    good so you get all the different trace
  • 00:07:14
    minerals as well as consuming high
  • 00:07:17
    quality protein in your diet like red
  • 00:07:20
    meat very very healthy eggs are good but
  • 00:07:24
    uh red meat is going to be the best
  • 00:07:26
    protein to build bone now if you have
  • 00:07:29
    that seen my video related to calcium
  • 00:07:32
    milk and phosphorus I put that up right
