You may be able to treat iron deficiency and decrease RLS symptoms by eating more iron-rich foods, such as: red meat; liver; spinach and other dark leafy greens; dried fruit; poultry; pork; seafood; iron-fortified cereals; beans; Eating foods rich in vitamin C along with iron-rich foods can help your body absorb iron better.
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) stimulates uptake of calcium into the bones (1) (and therefore osteoblast apoptosis (2)) and deportation of calcium from the bones (23), and inhibits excretion of calcium, generally increasing a low blood-calcium level. Low levels of PTH prevent bone loss.
Deportation of calcium from the bones by osteoclasts is a more direct process. Structurally, estrogen does not stimulate osteoblasts, (9) but even inhibits osteoblast activity (10) (and number (11)) and therefore inhibits calcium influx in the bones (12) and also inhibits deportation of calcium from the bones.
