Serum ionized magnesium and calcium and sex hormones in healthy young men: importance of serum progesterone level. - PubMed - NCBI
If i am not mistaken the study above says that More magnesium and less calcium will result in higher progesterone production.
I had my doubts about calcium and dairy consumption.
If you look at regions where calcium consumption is pretty low people are not generally unhealthy in those regions.
Also i noticed that the places in east asia with the lowest incidence of male pattern baldness have the lowest calcium consumption in the world if the calcification theory about baldness is correct then maybe consuming lots of dairy and calcium without adequate magnesium and vitamin d and k1 , k2 is causing calcification of soft tissue.
maybe we consume way too little magnesium and we are making matters worse by consuming excessive calcium.
Most animals and many tribes and populations around the world do just fine without ever consuming dairy.
Sufficient magnesium vitamin d k1,k2 zinc etc. are probably keeping pth low and make the best out of the calcium we consume without the need of excessive milk drinking.
im gonna keep dairy consumption low and start eating more mag and vitamin k and try to get more sun
and see how it goes.
Also the idea of calcium lowering progesterone is disturbing because progesterone is one of the most protective hormones and also one for the best anti-fibrotic agents.
Anyway tell me what you think about it or personal experiences.
Thanks for reading.
