In some cases, calcium supplements (especially in the form of calcium carbonate) have been found to have little impact on bone density and may even be harmful to our health.

Make lots of offers: When I want a piece of real estate, I look at many properties and generally write an offer. Offer half of what the owners asked for. Most sellers ask too much. In real estate, I make an offer with the words "subject to approval of business partner." Most people do not know my partner is my cat. If they accept the offer, and I don't want the deal, I call home and speak to my cat. [1998] - Robert T. Kiyosaki

Virtually any form of cellular or DNA damage may cause cancer, including chemicals, radiation, and viruses, but only under extremely specific conditions. The damage induced must be both sublethal and chronic. To cause cancer, cell damage cannot be too much or too little. An overwhelming injury will simply kill all the cells, leaving no chance for cancer to develop. Too little cellular damage, however, is simply repaired by the normal DNA-repair mechanisms. Chronicity is the second key attribute of carcinogens. A single large dose of radiation is far less carcinogenic than chronic low-level radiation. [2020] - Jason Fung
