Calcium in biology---2 Non-humans

 There are some problems of the first paragraph.

Something like[[===formula here</math></math>phosphate]] [[Media:Insert non-formatted]]'' ''text hereInsert non-formatted text here ===Other eukaryotes==Insert non-formatted text hereInsert non-formatted text here]]'' appear in the text and I think there is no relationship with the text. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Deluxenville (talk • contribs) 11:17, 24 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Humans/Dietary recommendations

Created section Humans to include Dietary recommendations, Food sources and Measurement in blood. David notMD (talk) 13:24, 10 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Contradiction

In Dietary recommendations: "May 27, 2016 it was revised to 1300 mg to bring it into agreement with the RDA." In the table it says: "19-50 years 1000" Should the table not say 19-50 years 1300mg? Mermaidthrone (talk) 21:54, 14 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

For setting Daily Value, the highest RDA not counting pregnancy or lactation. Hence, the table is correct that the RDA for 19-50 is 1000 mg/d but the DV is 1300 mg/d because that is the RDA for teenagers. Another example, the iron RDA for men is 8 mg but because the RDA for women who are pre-menopause is 18 mg. the DV is 18 mg. David notMD (talk) 01:25, 14 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Added more detail on what approved and what not. David notMD (talk) 10:27, 9 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
