When calcium is needed, the parathyroid gland sends the parathyroid hormone to the kidneys to trigger the production of vitamin D (which is actually classified as a hormone). The vitamin D hormone, in turn, prompts the intestines to transfer calcium from food to the blood. When calcium intake is too small to support normal functions, both vitamin D and the parathyroid hormone trigger a process in which stored calcium is mobilized from the bones.
Once the concentration of calcium exceeds the threshold in the blood, it is filtered by the kidney and excreted as urine. Also too much calcium can precipitate and form what we call kidney stones.
Calcium and Vitamin D are essential for having healthy, strong bones. It is important to have enough Calcium and Vitamin D in a person's diet. Calcium also helps a person's blood to clot.

If there is a lack of Vitamin D in someoneâ??s diet, the body will be unable to absorb calcium. This can make bones weak and can harm the immune system.
If women get too much calcium and not enough vitamin D, the bones cannot absorb the calcium correctly. It can cause the parathyroid to function incorrectly, but more prominent women will form bone spurs.

I use a very good supplement - Caltrate Plus - it has vitamin D plus minerals which the bones need; I have Osteoporosis - thinning of the bones through lose of calcium - I discovered that vitamin D is essential for the bones to absorb calcium better - the other mierals in Caltrate ,also enhance the body's absorption of this essential vitamin. We all need more calcium as we age - women in particular. Calcium on its own is not enough - the other vitamins & minerals are necessary for healthy bones. many supermarkets as well as chemists stock Caltrate Plus - the purple box.
