Kalsiumvalhe on kirja, jonka olisi pitänyt ilmestyä jo aikoja sitten. Se paljastaa lääketieteessä vallinneita väärinkäsityksiä ja suoranaisia valheita, joihin olemme uskoneet. Kirjan kirjoittaja amerikkalainen lääkäri Robert Thompson on vakuuttunut siitä, että lähes kaikkien kroonisten sairauksien syy on kehomme mineraalien ja vitamiinien puutteessa. Vuosikymmeniä ryöstöviljellyssä maaperässä kasvatetut elintarvikkeet, vihannekset, hedelmät ja marjat eivät enää sisällä elämälle välttämättömiä vitamiineja, hivenaineita ja mineraaleja, tai sisältävät niitä väärissä suhteissa. Lisäksi saamme niistä runsaasti kemiallisia lannoite- ja torjunta-aineita, jotka yhä pahentavat solujemme tilaa. Terveytemme vuoksi ne pitäisi korvata jotenkin. Mutta ennen kuin ryntäämme terveyskauppaan ostamaan lisäravinteita, meidän pitää tietää, millainen kehomme mineraali- ja vitamiinipitoisuus on. Sen saamme selville hiusmineraalitestillä. Tri Thompson on menestyksellisesti käyttänyt siihen Amerikan parasta laboratoriota, joka on lähes 30 vuoden ajan erikoistunut testaamaan kehomme joka solun terveyspitoisuutta. Hitaasti kasvavassa hiuksessa näkyy solujemme tila pitkältä ajanjaksolta. Edes viattoman tuntuisia kalkkitabletteja ei pitäisi ottaa ennen kuin tiedämme onko soluissamme jo valmiiksi liikaa kalsiumia, joka vaikuttaa verisuonten ja monen muun elimemme kalkkeutumiseen, jopa aivojemme. Liika on liikaa! Sama koskee vitamiineja. Ne pitäisi ottaa täysvitamiineina eli niiden pitäisi sisältää vitamiinin koko molekyyli, ei vain osa siitä. Hyvänä esimerkkinä C-vitamiini, jota pidetään askorbiinihappona, joka on vain pieni osa C:stä, yksinään otettuna se jopa tekee tyhjäksi elintärkeän C:n vaikutuksen.
