Should we add phosphorous for calcium absorption?

[huneypie]

I stumbled across this review on Amazon http://www.amazon.co.uk/Weleda-Phos...s/B0013G8GQU/ref=dpx_acr_txt?showViewpoints=1 which looks well written, but can't find anything in my Googling to back it up. Most articles say that 'normal' people don't need additional phosphorous, but then DSers aren't exactly 'normal' and curious to know if it'd help.

TIA.

No clue, sorry.

I have read that there is a relation between calcium and phosphorus (and D).

I did recall getting my phosphorus tested in my annual labs, so decided to look at my numbers to see if we run low. The lab range they give is 2.5 - 4.5, and my level is at 3.9. My level post op has always ranged from 3.2 to 4.2, and if it weren't in range, I'd ask the doc about it.

Have you had it tested before with your labs?

Good thinking I'll request it when I next get my labs done. Thanks.

I don't but from what I've ready, probably yes.
