Calcium is unique among metals because its ions have a very large concentration gradient across the plasma membrane of all cells, from 10 â3 M Ca 2+ outside, to 10 â7 M Ca 2+ inside.

In any behavior change, relapses are a common occurrence. When you go through a relapse, you might experience feelings of failure, disappointment, and frustration. The key to success is to not let these setbacks undermine your self-confidence. If you lapse back to an old behavior, take a hard look at why it happened.
