Effects of diet on total calcium, vitamin D and parathyroid hormone in falcons

[...]feeding whole meat diets can lead to nutritional secondary hyperparathyroidism. Vitamin D3 acts with PTH and calcitonin to regulate blood calcium levels by acting on liver, kidney, gastrointestinal tract and bone to alter calcium uptake, excretion and release rates in response to fluctuations i...

Description
Summary:[...]feeding whole meat diets can lead to nutritional secondary hyperparathyroidism. Vitamin D3 acts with PTH and calcitonin to regulate blood calcium levels by acting on liver, kidney, gastrointestinal tract and bone to alter calcium uptake, excretion and release rates in response to fluctuations in serum calcium levels (Stanford 2005).
