Your calcium number is only half the story! A “normal” total calcium level doesn’t always tell you about the calcium your body can actually use. Hear it from Dr. Yukti Shah as she explains the importance of the Ionised Calcium Test - which measures the biologically active form of calcium that supports nerve function, muscle contraction and a normal heartbeat. Because low albumin can affect total calcium readings, while your ionised calcium may still be completely normal. Total calcium gives you a number. Ionised calcium tells you what’s active. ✨
