Calcium levels in hair
often move in
the opposite direction to body inventory.
High hair calcium suggests calcium loss and wasting. High hair
calcium
will occasionally be due to very elevated serum calcium, parathyroid
problems
or excessive vitamin D levels but these are uncommon (serum calcium is
part of
most standard “chem panel” blood tests).
Low hair calcium may suggest deficiency or may indicate low
intake with
adequate body levels. Diets which
do not contain dairy products are typically much lower in calcium than
the
average American diet.
Thus the apparently
paradoxical
suggestion is made by people who know how to use hair tests that people
with
elevated hair calcium should consume more calcium.
