How the body maintains blood calcium levels:

Note how when blood calcium levels fall (e.g., due to a lack of calcium in the diet), the body releases hormones that stimulate osteoclasts, which resorb or dissolve bone, causing calcium to be released back into the bloodstream, raising blood calcium levels, but of course causing bone loss. This is the basic mechanism of MBD.
