Research suggests that if you don’t have enough calcium in your diet, you are likely to be overweight. An adequate supply appears to make it easier to maintain a healthy weight. The reason has to do with your body’s response to a calcium deficit. When you are low on calcium, your body thinks that you are starving and enters into emergency mode that involves releasing parathyroid hormone from the thyroid glands situated in your neck. This hormone stimulates the bones to release some calcium into the bloodstream. Your kidneys also deliver a dose of a hormone called calcitrol, a form of vitamin D, to increase your ability to absorb calcium. Hence, a high calcium intake suppresses these hormones so your body stores less fat and also breaksit down easily.
