That's the thing, one can get all the calcium you think you need, the problem is the kidney doesn't process it as well as it normally would, means a larger percent of that calcium you got through drinking your milk ends up exiting when you take a piss....

Less calcium processed = bigger risk of bone density problems aka osteoporosis.

That's what I took away from the article I linked to anyway.

It's also associated with affecting the kidney's way it processes calcium leading to increased risk of osteoporosis....not trying to kill the buzz, sorry.

*Edit to add: in higher doses, they are talking 8 cups a day kinda thing.
