Calcium timing

@gently
Just be cognizant that taking calcium to close to injection time (within a few hours) can make some people nauseous…

@osteopatient2026 early on I was taking calcium a few hours before the injection, thinking the pth drug would then need to draw less from my bones. It never gave me nausea. But I never figured out if it kept any calcium in my bone. I haven't ferreted if a person can help determine whether the hormone pulls calcium from the kidneys, the bones or the intestine.
What makes sense to you? Do you suppose that no matter the amount of calcium in the bloodstream a certain amount of injected pth1-34 is going to draw the same amount of hormone, as your wise caution suggests.
I abandoned calcium two hours, and now take magnesium two hours before to help determine that drawn calcium goes back into my bones in measured amounts.

I believe it’s mostly via kidneys.

@osteopatient2026, that would be the best from the kidneys. Do you think it draws less if you already have more calcium in the bloodstream. But maybe taking it from the bone sends those osteoblast streaming to where the calcium has gone missing.

@vmcgrantham
excellent point on absorption. D3 increases absorption of calcium. K2 does not increase absorption "they" say, but both are best to have in your bloodstream when you take calcium. I take the long chain form of K2 (K2-7), so it is pretty much always there. Citrical had D3 with it, but I don't take calcium at night.
I share the cardiac-caution about calcium that Lily Johnson expresses in the video. The largest supplement I take in a day is 250mg and not everyday. I wouldn't recommend this, though, even if we could give medical advice
