150. History of Bone Spurs

Bones spurs are bony projections associated with osteoarthritis. From a function perspective, they are associated with a primary mineral insufficiency, digestive dysfunction and thyroid hypo-function. Bone spurs many also be a sign of fluoride toxicity. which is associated with a calcium deficiency. Heel spurs respond well to B12 supplementation, with the appropriate digestive support.

Bone spurs are also associated with the deposition of bone into the inappropriate tissue. This is a sign of aberrant calcium metabolism, and possibly an alkalinity of the blood. Calcium is one of the minerals in the family of alkaline minerals that act as carbonic salts to neutralize acidity. When these salts react with an acid they form an alkaline salt the is easily excreted from the kidney. Calcium, as one of the major buffers of the blood, will begin to precipitate out of solution when the blood pH begins to drift from optimal. The calcium will cause problems as it settle into the tissues causing not only bone spurs, but also cataracts, kidney stones, and even bursitis.
