excessive calcium excretion from urine results in a negative calcium balance-meaning more calcium is excreted than absorbed
Research has shown that animal protein (including dairy), refined sugar and caffeine induces calcium lose in the urine. Animal protein ingestion results in heavy acid in the blood. Calcium is released from the bones to help neutralize the acid. Fruits and vegetables help buffer the acid load as they are alkaline. Did you know that all green vegetables are high in calcium and contain a lot of usable calcium. Green vegetables have an absorption rate of 50% whereas milk has an absorption rate of 30%. Milk also produces acid which again induces calcium lose in urine. Research has shown that those who eat a high amount of fruits and vegetables have stronger bones.
