Omg is this true? Calcium has some fatal side effects? (Info inside)?!?

Question

This email message has been circulating a lot right now and it has been forwarded to me by a close friend. It looks like a guy named A1 sent this to his friend, Beth. I don't know what to make of it since its been a well known saying that calcium is a helpful nutrient. I'm a teen and I drink milk twice a day and this really alarms me!

Dear Beth,

Thanks for the health info about calcium. Calcium is nothing without magnesium which is really a fighter for osteoporosis. I think both minerals are available in seafoods. So I think seafoods like clams and shrips are much much better than milk.. So everything about calcium, milk, etc. is purely business, purely marketing.

We do not have milk at home.

Aside from milk, do not drink or eat everything that has caffeine, like coffee, tea, iced tea, chocolate, milo, ovaltine, energy drinks, colas, etc. Caffeine is diuretic which means if you took coffee at six o clock in the morning, for six hours, that is until noon, your cells would not absorb water. All of the water that you drink during that period will go straight to your toilet, not to your cells. So you will be dehydrated, blood circulations will get weaker. That’s why many get diabetes, calcium stones in the kidney, hypertension, arthritis, etc. You don’t already drink water but you drink hazardous stuff that’ll dehydrate your body.
We should drink lots of water. Eat plenty of fruits and vegetables. If you want juice, make your own fresh juice, not powdered ones and not bottled or canned ones that don’t spol for ten years. Preservative is marketing term for pesticides in food.

And if you wanted to reduce weight, lessen meat, take one glass of water 30 minutes before every meal, eat fruits or drink fresh juice before eating your meal (not after meal as we normally do). Besides if we eat fruits after our regular meals it’ll probably decompose first before being digested and so it’ll probably upset the stomach
I have been doing all of these for two years na. Before almost weekly I’m w/ my doctor because I was always sick and I was always confined within a span of a year. The pain I felt was really bad. I never renewed my health insurance.
Now, thanks God, its been two years since It met my doctor. She’s probably thinking that I’ve changed doctors.
Let us have a healthy lifestyle, positive attitude and faith in God, and do not believe in whatever advertised by media.

Best regards.

Wht do you think? =O

Answer 1

he nailed it mate ..... calcium and magnesium work in tandem in the human body for healthy nerve and muscle functioning in a two to 1 relationship .... 2 parts calcium to 1 part magnesium.......... ingesting one without the other will cause deficiencies in one or the other..... too much calcium = constipation, too much magnesium = diahorrea .... calcium also needs vitamin C for effective assimilation....... calcium magnesium vitamin C are all found in abundance in green plant and salad vegies ..... in perfect harmony as nature intended ..... last time i looked there was no vitamin C magnesium in milk..... pasteurisied homogenised totally "raw enzyme" deficient commercially processed milk........ green vegies, fresh salmon and sardines and tuna, are all rich in calcium and magnesium in a far easier to assimilate form than all that milk and dairy .... the greatest myth that's ever been perpetrated on mankind is that you NeEd processed packaged milk for sufficient calcium supplies.



caffeine and processed sugary type carbonated drinks not only dehydrate you but acidify your bloodstream thus prompting your body to rip the calcium and magnesium right out of your bones in an effort to neutralise it.... a diet high in processed salt, animal protein, saturated fat, alcohol, processed sugar will all do the same thing ...icky, calcium and magnesium deficiency isn't pretty....... calcium and magnesium work in tandem for neural health, healthy digestion and heart bone and tooth health.



packaged juices and sweet drinks are loaded with processed sugar .... processed sugar destroys everything in it's path... nutritionally void, man made chemically processed useless processed sugar..... fresh fresh fresh will always be the way to go......... avoid the chemicals, preservatives, flavorings, artificial sweetners et al ad nauseum that comes along with eating processed and packaged foods and skip the production line of degenerative health.



eating fruits within an hour of anything else like meat or grains or vegetables will hinder the digestion process and produce bloating constipation gassiness etc..... as fruit digests very quickly you should always eat fruit an hour before a meal ...... or up to 3 to 4 hours after.



if you want to reduce weight ........ ditch eating processed sugar..... bottled, canned, packaged foods and drinks generally contain a lot of processed sugar .... particularly foods and drinks labelled as "diet" or "low fat" ........ ditch eating processed sugar and the weight will drop off you.



your friend did you a huge favor forwarding that email.



i too was as sick as sick can be until i ditched eating milk and dairy, pumped up my salad and green vegie intake, ditched eating all processed sugar and stopped eating processed foods and pinpointed all my food intolerances.



i'm healthy as a horse these days.



eat fresh food.



drink water.



and may the bounce in your step always be with ya.



peace baby
