What is hypocalcemia, and how does it impact our health?
Hypocalcemia refers to abnormally low calcium levels in the blood. Here are some serious indicators of calcium insufficiency that one should look out for.
Calcium insufficiency in children and adults causes the following symptoms:
Calcium deficiency can cause numbness and tingling in the hands and feet.
Fatigue: Low calcium levels can induce weakness, making it difficult to perform regular tasks.
Muscle cramps: Calcium shortage can cause muscle cramps, spasms, and even muscle weakening because muscles lacking calcium cannot maintain their usual tone.
Seizures: Hypocalcemia, which over-excites the brain, can cause seizures.
Osteoporosis: Calcium shortage can lead to poor bone mineral density, which causes osteoporosis, in which the bones become brittle and fractures are more likely.
Dry skin: When calcium levels are low, the skin loses its ability to retain moisture and maintain a healthy pH. As a result, your skin may get dry.
Gum disease and tooth decay are frequent diseases caused by a deficiency of calcium in the body.
Rickets: In children, low calcium levels cause rickets, which causes bone breaking.
