In order to maintain a normal calcium level, the body uses hormones to regulate blood calcium levels.

The normal regulation of calcium in our blood stream is similar to the way a thermostat works. The body is set to have a normal amount of calcium (somewhere between 8.6 to 10.3 mg/dL).

The parathyroid glands can be thought of as the “calcium thermostat” of the body.

The parathyroid glands are a group of four glands neighboring the thyroid gland that are the main regulators of the blood calcium in your body (See Parathyroid Glands-Illustration).

Parathyroid glands release parathyroid hormone (PTH) which increases your blood calcium levels. If the calcium levels are too low, the parathyroid glands will release PTH that will raise blood calcium to the appropriate levels.
