I've been recently taking alot of calcuim and magnesium in a liquid form due to having been diagnose with osteoporosis and noticed i have become so, so sleepy all the time, and have been sleeping excessively. Also i have to pull over when driving and take a nap on the side of the road! That's how sleepy i have been feeling. This is very unusual for me. Also i feel higher levels of anxiety and have very little energy. I have stopped taking the supplement and hope to be feeling back to normal soon. Terrie

Why is calcium more reactive than magnesium?
Calcium is more reactive than magnesium because it is larger than a magnesium atom because it has one more energy level. Valence electrons are on the outermost occupied energy level in the atom and they cause the atom to react, and thus the further the Valence electrons are from the nucleus, the more reactive they are. Therefore, calcium is more reactive than magnesium because the valence electrons on the calcium atom is farther from the nucleus.
Why does calcium gluconate given after the fourth dose of blood transfussion?
correct me if im wrong... it's because each unit of blood contains citrate. it acts as a chelating agent and anti coagulant, thus cause hypocalcemia. another, it will prevent citrate toxicity because the liver metabolizes this slowly. each unit may contain about 3g of citrate. am i right?

What kind of chemicals are used in a water softener?
Hard water means it is 'basic' and so has a high pH value (>7, likely 8 or more) so you need to add a 'acidic' substance such as vinegar or phosphoric acid in weak solution, but the best way is to buy a water softening electric coil that wraps around the cold water source in your basement (or where ever) and plugs into the wall. This will cause a ionic reaction that prevents limescale from forming in kettles, showers and pipes anywhere in the house. It'll also help keep your water heater working for much longer.

Blood contains high levels of citrate. Calcium gluconate helps counteract or buffer the effect of the citrate which can include chelating, inability to coagulant or clot which can cause hypocalcemia, and citrate toxicity due to the lover's slow processing of citrate.

Does calcium build up cause rheumatoid arthritis?
At present the reason for arthritis is not yet understood. There is however a school of thought that feels thatexcessive calcium can build up in joints and cause arthritis as a result of a deficiency in magnesium. The body requires magnesium to process calcium into the body. So the problem is not so much too much calcium but to little magnesium.
