Dolomite

Dolomite is no longer recommended as a source for calcium or magnesium since it might be contaminated with toxic metals like lead.

Individuals with hypercalcemia shouldn't use calcium supplements. Conditions that cause hypercalcemia include cancer, hyperparathyroidism, hypervitaminosis D, some granulomatous diseases, and sarcoidosis. Individuals with high-grade atrioventricular blocks and renal failure shouldn't use magnesium supplements. Children, nursing mothers, and women who are pregnant should absolutely avoid Dolomite.
