Low Stomach Acid and Soft Tissue Calcium

  • Connection to Bio-Unavailable Calcium: Yes, hypochlorhydria (low stomach acid) is considered a significant contributing factor to the malabsorption of essential minerals, particularly calcium, magnesium, and zinc.
  • Role of Stomach Acid: Adequate hydrochloric acid (HCl) is strictly required to ionize and solubilize dietary minerals so they can be properly absorbed in the small intestine.
  • Mineral Imbalances: When stomach acid is insufficient, calcium is poorly absorbed in an ionized, bio-available form, often leading to systemic mineral dysregulation.
  • Soft Tissue Deposition: Instead of being properly utilized and directed into the bones and teeth, unabsorbed or poorly regulated calcium can circulate and deposit abnormally into soft tissues, joints, arteries, and organs.
  • The Magnesium Factor: Low stomach acid also impairs magnesium absorption. Since magnesium acts as a natural calcium channel blocker and keeps calcium dissolved in the blood and soft tissues, a concurrent magnesium deficiency drastically increases the likelihood of soft tissue calcification.
