Is calcium useful to humans?
Actually, calcium is a vital macronutrient that must be consumed on a fairly regular basis to maintain life. While most people know that calcium helps build strong bones (it is one of the two major elements in the rigid bone matrix), calcium is also vital for proper heart muscle function. The correct level of calcium in the blood maintains the correct reactivity for the heart to contract, which does so when a flood of calcium is released inside the heart muscle cells. Without calcium, the heart would not be able to contract and a person would die.
