What causes calcium build up in our bodys?

Question

Does this have to do with my thyriod

Answer 1

Calcium can build up if there is a problem with the parathyroid glands...there are 4 of them on the tips of the "wings" of the thyroid gland. they regulate calcium metabolism. I know about this as my mum had hypercalcaemia (High blood calcium) due to damage to her parathyroid glands.

Answer 2

Can be caused by a deficiency of Vitamin K in system. Vitamin K is in most green leafy vegetables as well as certain fermented foods. We think of calcium as something we want in our bodies to build healthy bones; however a build up of calcium is not good for us. When calcium deposits form in our blood vessel walls, this causes arteriosclerosis.

When our calcium supplies are adequate, long slender crystals of calcium are formed at the ends of our large bones. This is where the body can access calcium when the serum calcium is not sufficient. This process is controlled by the parathyroid glands. These are four tiny bead-sized glands embedded in the surface of the thyroid gland which monitor the release of calcium from the bones, keeping serum calcium levels stable
