I've been taking 1500mg (separated into 3 doses) of Calcium carbonate per day. Is it possible that this is causing my dark urine/chronic dehydration?

Hi scoobydoo! I know your post is 6 months old, but did you get to the bottom of your dark urine. It sounds a lot to me like kidney stones. I have had stones in my kidneys, gall bladder and pancreas from calcium suppliments, and have since stayed away from them, with no further incidence for over 5 years now.

It never amounted to anything
But it’s very consistent with calcium supplementation it seems
Which is odd cause it’s kinda at the root of ray peat ideology

Calcium supplementation is precarious. How long have you been taking them?
