It's actually a myth that white spots on nails are caused by a calcium deficiency. The most common cause of these spots (called leukonychia) is trauma to the nail bed (a whack on the nail, a rough manicure, etc.). They can also be caused by allergic reactions to nail polishes or other nail products, or by bacterial or fungal infections. If you suddenly find yourself with a lot of these spots, and you can't remember your fingers being subjected to any kind of trauma lately, you should see a doctor, as a variety of other conditions can cause this symptom. The vast majority of these spots are caused by utterly harmless mild trauma to the nails, though. They aren't something to be too concerned about.
