In this episode I explain why calcium in our blood plasma is such an important ion what kinds of things it does when we have adequate plasma calcium and what tends to happen when our plasma calcium is disregulated. I also discuss how calcium levels in the plasma are managed by the endocrine system and the cells that build and dissolve bone in our skeletal system.
