Calcium is important as that is what bones are made of.
Serum calcium will be depleted in advances osteoporosis. Calcium mostly resides in the bones. In osteoporsosis, the bone is being broken down faster than the body can rebuild it. This causes calcium stores to go from the bones and into the blood stream. Serum calcium is the measure of calcium in the blood, not what is in the bones.
Calcium is important for your health because it contains an element that helps to strengthen your bones, fingernails and teeth and makes you less prone to getting chipped teeth and broken bones.
Stitching cuts, setting broken bones
Calcium is an important mineral in our diet - our bones and teeth contain a lot of it. Calcium oxide is used in cement and concrete, and calcium cabonate is used in iron and steel making. if you have ever broken a bone, you might have had a cast made from plaster of Paris which is calcium sulphate. The name calcium comes from the latin word for lime (calcium oxide). Calcium is needed for our blood to clot properly, and for our muscles and nerves to work properly. There is about 1kilogram of calcium in a typical 70kilogram person and about 99% of this is stored in the bones. Calcium is found in foods such as milk, cheese and tofu. If we do not have enough calcium in our diet we run the risk of getting weak bones and teeth. Vitamin D is important for controlling the levels of calcium and phosphorus in our bodies. Eggs, butter and margarine are good sources of vitamin D and our bodies can also make it when we spend time in the sunshine.
Broken bones are extremely painful. Any movement of a broken bone causes terrible pain to the patient. Sedation is a great way to calm the patient, relieve his/her pain and be able to manipulate the bone for setting without resistance from the patient.
Lack of calcium can lead to bone deficiencies. Lack of calcium can also cause bones to be brittle. If one plays sports and has a lack of calcium, and ends up falling hard or getting a hard hit, broken bones can easily occur.
calcium makes your bones stronger
For most broken bones, a visit to the hospital, a re-setting of the bone, casting, and pain medication will heal the bone over time. In extreme cases, some bones require surgery.
I don't think bones are made of calcium. Calcium is a nutrition that your bones need to be strong.
