calcification inhibitors

Calcification inhibitors are substances in the body that prevent excessive or abnormal calcium buildup in tissues like blood vessels, kidneys, and soft tissues. These inhibitors help maintain a healthy balance, ensuring calcium deposits don’t clog or damage tissues. They work by interfering with crystal formation or growth, which are processes involved in calcification. Proper functioning of these inhibitors is vital for preventing conditions such as artery hardening or kidney stones. Factors like genetics, diet, or health conditions can affect their effectiveness, underscoring the importance of overall health in calcium regulation.
