Speaker: Donald Yance, CN, RH (AHG) In this presentation we go deeply into the current biomedical research on calcium and calcification-related diseases. Calcium is the most abundant mineral found in the body; about 99 percent is in bones and teeth, and the remaining 1 percent is found in blood and soft tissues. Calcification-related disorders or displaced calcium are a major contributing factor to chronic disease, including heart disease, cancer and arthritic diseases. This presentation looks at causes, the relationship of pH and acidosis to this condition, and an important lab test to use when calcification may be present. The management plan includes nutritional agents, the role of herbal medicine and specific herbs, dietary considerations and lifestyle suggestions.
