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.
