Calcium is a major component of bone, an adequate dietary supply of calcium during growth being considered critically important for the development of strong and healthy bone. The aim of the study was to evaluate the short term effects of dietary calcium intake on the biochemical diagnostic of the hyperparathyroidism in healthy people Subjects. The study was conducted on 36 subjects (age between 21 and 71 years, 4 men and 32 women) recruited from patients refereed to the Endocrinology Department of Elias Hospital who were not diagnosed with diseases proved to influence calcium or bone metabolism and agreed with the study for inclusion in the study, all subjects were checked for thyroid dysfunctions, hypercortisolism, hypogonadism, and active liver diseases which might interfere with total alkaline phosphatase values. The data obtained through this study sustain the significant effect of short term variations in calcium dietary intake on the biochemical diagnosis of hyperparathyroidism.
