John 8:32 "Truth will set you free"










PTH, Calcitonin and the mineralization of bone when your body has an abundance of minerals, it will store calcium, magnesium and other trace minerals as reserves in the bones, bone anabolism can only occur with sufficient mineral levels, with calcium being of main importance to bone. PTH and Calcitonin are regulators of calcium metabolism when your body isn't getting the minerals it needs from the diet, or calcium metabolism is impaired (due to Fluoride for example), PTH rises in response, PTH signals to Osteoclasts to start breaking down bone for the minerals which are stored in it. when your body IS getting the minerals it needs from the diet (with calcium metabolism being optimal), Calcitonin will rise, this rise in Calcitonin triggers Osteoblasts to start laying down the 'extra' minerals in new bone tissue. PTH causes bone tissue to be broken down Calcitonin causes new bone tissue to be produced
