Is hydroxyapatite the form of calcium that we should consider supplementing?

Posted: 6/4/2015 10:24:16 AM   This is food for thought. If eating calcium-rich foods such as dairy do not seem to increase bone density nor decrease risk of osteoporotic fracture, while calcium salt (carbonate, lactate, etc.) supplementation likely increases cardiovascular risk, is a better strategy to supplement/obtain a different form, such as hydroxyapatite, the biological form that calcium is found in within bone? Here is an interesting observation from the New Zealand group that does a lot of calcium work: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25274192 Here is Dr. James O'Keefe's take on the existing evidence: http://thepaleodiet.com/got-bones-paleo-solution-building-strong-bones-keeping-arteries-soft-supple/ Tags:

Posted: 9/14/2015 11:11:49 AM   3% and 20%.  I'd talk to my doctor if I were concerned.  There are too many missing pieces in your history and this is no place for medical advice. But it is a great place for community support! Tags:
