Now We Don't Need All That Calcium and D. We Might End Up With Kidney Stones. New Study.

Los Angeles Times - Opinion Here all this time being of the belief that calcium and vitamin D supplements to insure no brittle bones I might have kidney stones or even heart disease.

More on this from the  Los Angeles Times. Written by Karen Stabiner

The Institute of Medicine recently upended the health apple cart last week with a new study that says we don't need as much calcium or vitamin D as we've been told. In fact, taking the kind of megadose that makes you feel virtuous and keeps the supplement industry healthy can lead to kidney stones, with calcium, and kidney or heart damage, with D.

Well I am going to wait for more studies.
