We explored the connections between calcium levels and kidney stones using data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) spanning 2013 to 2018, along with more advanced genetic analyses. Our aim was to understand how the levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D, calcium, and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) might influence the risk of developing kidney stones.
While observational analyses suggested a relationship between ALP levels and kidney stones, we found that calcium levels did not display a significant association with kidney stones when looking at the data directly. However, utilizing Mendelian randomization analysis, we observed a potential causal link, indicating that elevated calcium levels could indeed raise the risk of developing kidney stones.
The key takeaway from our research is that while observational studies show no strong link between calcium and kidney stones, our genetic analysis implies that higher calcium may contribute to stone formation. Our work provides valuable insights and directions for future studies focused on preventing and treating this painful condition.

No kidney stones
Excellent quality! Despite the capsules being rather large, they are easy to swallow and have no side effects. I chose this organic calcium as it does not affect the kidneys and does not contribute to the formation of kidney stones.

This is the best calcium supplement as it comes from plants instead of rocks, significantly reducing the chances of developing kidney stones, in my opinion.

Whole food extraction offers good absorption and gastrointestinal comfort. This vegetarian and gluten-free calcium supplement is hormone-free, posing no risk of kidney stones. I generally take it at night, and it has worked well during my pregnancy, with no signs of calcium deficiency or premature placental hardening. I'm very satisfied that my postpartum examination showed no lack of calcium, which is essential for breastfeeding mothers to prevent baby’s calcium deficiency.
