[QUOTE="NoCrbs4Me, post: 1617749, member: 113206"] No, I haven't, but I have no symptoms of calcium deficiency. But I never said I ate only muscle meat. I said I only eat animal based food, which includes dairy, eggs, and seafood. People who only eat muscle meat seem to do fine, though. According to the interweb, most westerners already don't get the RDA for calcium, yet most people don't have obvious symptoms of calcium deficiency (apart from osteoperosis in old people), so I suspect the RDA is well above the level where'd you'd see obvious symptoms. It seems the RDA is meant to address long term bone loss. But a confounding factor is vitamin D. Inadequate vitamin D is also a factor in bone loss and most westerners don't get enough vitamin D.
