Why Your Calcium Isn’t Working
from Ultra Life Today Hosted by Ultra Botanica Network
Why do so many people take calcium for decades… and still develop osteoporosis? In this episode of Ultra Life Today, Stephen Heuer of Synergistic Nutrition challenges the conventional calcium narrative and introduces the concept of ionic calcium (Ca2+) — the form your body actually regulates. We discuss parathyroid hormone, soft tissue calcification, arterial hardening, gum recession, and why many traditional calcium supplements may miss the mark. We also explore: Why bone loss increases after age 35 The difference between protein-bound calcium and ionic calcium The gut’s role in mineral regulation Raw milk, phosphatase, and bone formation Microbiome strategies for improving calcium metabolism This conversation reframes osteoporosis, calcification, and mineral balance in a way most people have never heard before.
