Introduction:
- Calcium is an essential mineral that supports multiple systems throughout the body. We need to maintain adequate calcium levels in order for your heart, nervous system, and muscles to function properly.
- When don't get enough calcium from outside sources, such as food or supplements, your body dips into the calcium bank stored in your bones to keep blood levels up. Over time, pulling calcium from your bones weakens them and increases the risk of fracture.
- Beyond bones, additional possible benefits of calcium supplementation include improvements in blood pressure and weight loss.
- Calcium is important for people of all ages. Children and teens are still in the process of forming their bones and should be mindful of getting sufficient calcium.
- Calcium citrate is a calcium salt that's easier to absorb.
- It can be used for lots of foods fortification, including Infant formula, fruit juice, dairy products, solid beverage, sports drinks, milk, soybean milk, health care products and cereal products, etc.
- In food industry, it also can be as a chelating agent, buffer, curing agent etc.
