Her professors or instructors are saying that high dietary protein
increases urinary
calcium excretion, and then they make the assumption that, therefore, it's bad for bone health, but that's only part of the puzzle, and they're not understanding the

calcium that animal protein and protein in general leads to.
Then they have another figure on the right that shows that as you
increase protein by that same amount, there's a corresponding
increase in the amount of
calcium that's absorbed in the intestine into the bloodstream, and that
increase in
intestinal calcium absorption compensates for any loss of
calcium that might happen in the urine, and the overall
calcium balance either doesn't change or it actually even goes up with higher - protein diets.

calcium and phosphorus:
increases the
intestinal absorption of these minerals from the GI tract and assists the movement of
calcium and phosphorus into bone for skeletal development.
