Calcium is an important mineral found in the bones, teeth, and blood. While most of the calcium is found in the bones and teeth a small percent is also found in the blood which is important for the systems to function efficiently. Calcium in blood is found in two forms: bound calcium that is attached to the proteins in the blood and free calcium or ionised calcium that is not attached to the proteins in the blood. Calcium test measures all the calcium (bound and free calcium) in the blood.
It is essential to have an adequate calcium level in your body. This enables your muscles, heart, and nerves can function properly. It also helps in the movement of blood across the body through the blood vessels. It also helps in releasing certain hormones in the body. Too much or too little calcium in the blood may be a sign of thyroid/parathyroid disorders, bone conditions, kidney diseases, malnutrition, and other conditions.
