The serious effects of calcium deficiency on our body or the symptoms we see are: -
- i) Leg cramps
If you feel cramps in your legs, it is the first sign of a lack of calcium. To remedy this, you need to make sure that you have enough calcium in your daily diet. In addition, the Cleveland Clinic says that stretching your legs before bed will reduce the pain. Do you believe it? If not, give it a try!
- ii) Tooth cavity:
Dental cavities are growing more than before? Don't just blame sweets. When our body doesn't get enough calcium from food, it looks for it from other sources, such as our teeth. iii) Numbness: Due to lack of calcium like spasms in the legs, the spinal nerves of our hands get damaged. If you feel restlessness or tingling sensation on the eyelids, check the amount of calcium immediately.
- iv) Fragile nails
Like teeth and body nails also contain calcium. Therefore, a calcium-starving body will take calcium from there for nutrition. This causes our nails to become brittle, unless we take in more calcium.
- v) Difficulty sleeping
According to medical data, calcium helps to make serotonin, which is responsible for sleep. When you go to deep sleep, your calcium levels rise. So if you sleep less at night then your body will be deficient in calcium.
- vi) Bad posture:
Low calcium means weak bones and weak bones means weak body. Your body will become numb to this weakness. This awkward posture will increase back and shoulder pain.
vii) Heart attack
The National Center for Biotechnology says calcium is needed for muscle contraction and neurotransmitter release. Thus a lack of calcium can cause a heart attack.
