Calcium/Magnesium
The bones serve as a storage place for mineral salts and play an important role in the formation of blood
cells. They also give shape to and support the body. Calcium deficiency can cause tooth decay, muscle
cramps, nervousness, restlessness, insomnia and loss of resistance against infections, poor circulation, bronchitis
and colds, among many others. High intake of meat can lead to mineral imbalance, too much phosphorus and
too little calcium, which leads to Calcium and Magnesium deficiency and will result in loss of teeth through
decay and pyorrhea. Symptoms of calcium deficiency are brittle bones, poor development of bones and teeth,
rickets, hyper-irritability, and excessive
bleeding. Restlessness, insomnia, muscle cramps,
back and leg pains, even asthma and hayfever are symptoms of calcium deficiency. Recently, a medical researcher said calcium
deficiency is the major cause of high blood
pressure.
