Apple Cider Vinegar for Calcium Deposits

Calcium deposits, or calcification, occur when excess calcium accumulates in soft tissues, joints, or arteries, leading to pain and stiffness. While conventional treatments involve medications or surgery, natural remedies can effectively dissolve calcium deposits and prevent their formation.

What Causes Calcium Deposits?

  • Imbalanced calcium levels: Excess calcium intake or poor absorption.
  • Inflammation: Chronic inflammatory conditions may trigger deposits.
  • Metabolic disorders: Conditions like hyperparathyroidism and kidney disease.
  • Aging: Natural wear and tear can contribute to calcium buildup.

Top Natural Remedies to Dissolve Calcium Deposits

1. Apple Cider Vinegar

Rich in acetic acid, apple cider vinegar helps break down calcium deposits and reduce inflammation. Mix 1 tablespoon in a glass of water and drink daily.

2. Magnesium

Magnesium regulates calcium balance in the body and prevents deposits. Foods rich in magnesium include spinach, almonds, and avocados. Supplements can also be taken (400-600 mg daily).

3. Vitamin K2

Vitamin K2 helps direct calcium to bones rather than soft tissues. Found in fermented foods like natto and cheese, or taken as a supplement (100-200 mcg daily).

4. Curcumin (Turmeric)

Curcumin is an anti-inflammatory compound that prevents calcification. Take 500 mg of curcumin extract daily or add turmeric to meals.

5. Chanca Piedra

Known as the "stone breaker," this herb helps dissolve kidney stones and calcium deposits. Drink chanca piedra tea or take a capsule supplement daily.

6. Boron

Boron plays a role in calcium metabolism and may reduce deposits. Found in nuts, fruits, and taken as a supplement (3-6 mg daily).

7. Vitamin D

Essential for calcium absorption, vitamin D prevents excess calcium from depositing in tissues. Get 20 minutes of sunlight daily or take a supplement (1,000-2,000 IU).

8. Fish Oil (Omega-3)

Omega-3 fatty acids reduce inflammation and help prevent vascular calcification. Take 1,000-2,000 mg daily or consume fatty fish like salmon.

9. Zinc

Zinc supports bone health and prevents calcium buildup in arteries. Found in pumpkin seeds, chickpeas, and supplements (15-30 mg daily).

10. Bromelain

A natural enzyme from pineapples, bromelain breaks down excess calcium in soft tissues. Take a supplement (500 mg daily).

How to Prevent Calcium Deposits

  • Stay hydrated to flush out excess minerals.
  • Eat a balanced diet rich in magnesium, vitamin K2, and omega-3s.
  • Limit processed foods and excess calcium supplements.
  • Engage in regular physical activity to improve circulation.

When to See a Doctor

While natural remedies are effective, seek medical advice if you experience:

  • Severe pain or swelling.
  • Restricted movement or joint stiffness.
  • Signs of organ involvement (kidneys, heart).

Avoid Calcium Carbonate

I had a lump behind my ear since childhood related to a maxillofacial injury possibly. I tried a series of natural and herbal remedies, one being chanca Piedra. The lump was gone in a week of using the remedies. And I passed a golf ball size stone, and white powder. None of the remedies were white powder. If the remedies dissolve the calcium deposits entirely I will not need maxillofacial surgery that could cost near $100,000 if joint replacement.

A well known doctor from Naples, Florida, a specialist in health and nutrition, has said the rock calcium is not organic calcium and never should be in vitamin supplements or food. He said calcium carbonate causes pea gravel calcium deposits in the brain. Calcium carbonate is rock calcium. It could be what the deposits are from. I had one calcification in the brain area on a CT. He said calcium citrate is the right organic calcium. I switched to it.

I am not sure if calcium carbonate in toothpaste is an issue. But most don't eat it. I am guarding against that bad calcium and seeing some results with the chanca Piedra. I use herbs cautiously. I am going into another round of chanca Piedra and see what results I get before going into a possible $100,000 surgery. I believe God gave us herbs in Genesis. I figure it is the right way to go.

I was having pain in my shoulder and elbow and I started drinking ginger tea every morning. Pain is gone! I use Apple Cider Vinegar for other reasons but it did not help my shoulder.

Hi

Just an observation, (no medical training etc), how can antibiotics help with calcium deposits?

Did the Dr explain how it would work?

As users on this site, we all pretty much 'know' that a Dr's 'go to' medication is an antibiotic. For literally almost anything.

Also known as the "take two tablets and come back in a fortnight" approach.

For me, when looking for help, (as natural as possible), I pref need to have an understanding / logical approach explained to me of how the 'answer' will work for my condition.

Antibiotics are the most prescribed medicine in the world. If you feel you need antibiotics, take natural ones.

Hi Audrey,

Magnesium may be useful for calcifications in the body.

Many forms of magnesium have shown the ability to cross the blood brain barrier (BBB).

A few forms of magnesium that are considered to cross the BBB are Magnesium Taurate, Magnesium L Threonate and Magnesium Aspartate.

If you don't mind answering, how did you determine that you had calcifications of the brain?

@ Audrey

First you need to understand how you got this problem. You have too much calcium in your diet with too little magnesium. You have a inbalance inside your body. You need calcium for strong bones. If magnesium is not present, your body will push it into the soft tissue and cause calcification of the organs. D3 and K2 needs to but present also.

Apple Cider Vinegar is my number one remedy for this problem.

Apple cider vinegar helps break down calcium deposits and reduce inflammation. Mix 1 tablespoon in a glass of water and drink 3x/daily. Expect to do this for 3 months/
