Low blood calcium, while rare, can cause severe physical problems like heart failure and osteoporosis, but it can also trigger psychological problems like anxiety and psychosis.
All muscles (including the heart muscle) require calcium to function, which is why it is the most carefully regulated element in the body. Vitamin D plays an important role in calcium regulation to the extent that vitamin D deficiency leads to calcium disregulation. So it is essential to have enough vitamin D, of which the primary source is the sun.
The telltale signs of calcium deficiency are swollen legs, hand twitching, and diffculty breathing as he lungs fill with fluid.
So if you are experiencing sudden anxiety and show those symptoms, take a blood test to check your calcium level.
Also,make sure you get plenty of sunshine!
