Calcium Phosphorus Balance
The balance between calcium and phosphorus in the blood is critical for skeletal and organ health. The kidneys play a central role in maintaining this balance. When kidney function declines in chronic-kidney-disease, phosphorus levels rise, potentially causing crystal formation in tissues and bone abnormalities.
Key Facts
- Imbalance causes crystals to form in body tissues; bones may become rubbery
- Kidneys regulate this balance; failure causes phosphorus to rise
- Managed with renal-diet (phosphorus restriction) and medications
- calcitriol (active vitamin D) helps maintain balance in CKD Stage III+
- Fish-based diets can cause phosphorus/magnesium imbalance even in healthy cats
- Mineral deposits from imbalance can form ureteral-stones
- Species: dogs and cats
