| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Dr. Berg's Healthy Keto and Interminate Fasting Podcast, where Dr. |
| 0:07.7 | Berg takes you on the journey for the truth about getting healthy and losing healthy weight. |
| 0:22.1 | I'm going to show you a really simple home test that you can do to determine if you have a calcium |
| 0:28.4 | deficiency. Now, calcium deficiencies are pretty common, but usually not because a person is not |
| 0:35.3 | taking a supplement or not getting it from your diet, it's mainly because either they're not |
| 0:41.0 | absorbing it or the body is not utilizing it properly. So in this video, we're going to talk about |
| 0:46.1 | the symptoms of the calcium deficiency and all of the other reasons why you might be deficient |
| 0:52.3 | and then a real simple home test that you can do. Okay, so what are the symptoms? Well, number one, |
| 0:56.9 | anxiety, irritability, insomnia, muscle tension, spasms or crabs, low back pain, constipation, |
| 1:08.2 | high blood pressure, heart palpitations, frequent nose bleeds could be a calcium deficiency, |

| 1:38.7 | chronic coughing and difficulty getting to sleep. So calcium is a mineral that we need for our muscles, |
| 1:46.0 | our bones, our tendons, our ligaments and the nervous system. Calcium also acts as a |
| 1:51.8 | communication between your nerves and there's many things that affect the calcium absorption. |
| 1:56.8 | Okay, first thing is vitamin D. If you don't have enough vitamin D, you're not going to absorb |
| 2:02.6 | calcium that well. If you have sufficient vitamin D, you can increase the absorption of calcium |
| 2:08.0 | by the factor of 20x. Okay, that is a major increase in calcium absorption and of course so many people |
| 2:14.8 | are deficient vitamin D. Now magnesium, if you're low on magnesium, you're going to have a difficult |
| 2:20.8 | absorbing calcium because magnesium and calcium work together. Another factor is the hydrochloric acid |
