What happens if you consume too much calcium?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Kidney stones.: Excess calcium intake can cause kidney stones. More recently it has been reported that calcium supplements may increase the risk of calcification in arteries and lead to a higher incidence of heart attacks and strokes. This remains somewhat controversial.
