Dietary sodium is a major determinant of urinary calcium loss (1) . High-sodium intake results in increased loss of calcium in the urine, possibly due to competition between sodium and calcium for reabsorption in the kidneys or by an effect of sodium on parathyroid hormone (PTH) secretion.
Calcium absorption is the amount your body absorbs from your digestive tract into your bodyâs circulation. Calcium absorption can be affected by your bodyâs status of calcium and vitamin D, age, pregnancy and plant substances in your diet. The amount of calcium consumed at one time can also affect absorption.
