Does Calcium Cause Kidney Stones? Debunking Myths & Sharing the Facts

Hello, I’m Dr. Ankush Agarwal, an orthopedic surgeon in Indore. In this video, I’ll share important facts about calcium, its benefits, and common myths. Calcium is an essential mineral that keeps your bones and teeth strong. It also helps your muscles, nerves, and heart work properly.

You can get calcium from foods like milk, cheese, yogurt, almonds, leafy greens (like spinach and kale), and fortified cereals. If your diet doesn’t provide enough calcium, supplements may help, but always consult your doctor before starting them.

One common myth is that calcium causes kidney stones. The truth is, eating calcium-rich foods doesn’t cause stones. In fact, proper calcium intake can prevent the formation of certain types of kidney stones. The real risk comes from consuming excessive supplements or high amounts of oxalates without enough calcium in your diet.

A balanced diet with the right amount of calcium is crucial for overall health. Watch my video in Hindi to learn how to take care of your bones and avoid common mistakes. Stay healthy and strong!
