10Calcium Deficiency
A parathyroid gland maintains a proper level of calcium in the body by turning on or off the production of parathyroid hormone. This balancing activity often works well in most cases. But when you suffer from calcium deficiency, this organ will raise the level by releasing more calcium in your bones. Due to some factors, the produced amount would be too much and lead to hyperparathyroidism. You can minimize the risk by taking some calcium supplements or consuming more foods with this mineral, especially dairy products. However, keep in mind that too much calcium could also trigger hyperparathyroidism due to the imbalance. Therefore, consult your dietitian to know the right daily amount of intake. [10]
