Calcium is important to people of all genders and ages. Calcium is an essential nutrient that helps build and maintain healthy bones and teeth. Most notably, as part of a healthy diet, adequate calcium throughout life may reduce the risk of osteoporosis, a disease that’s characterized by a decrease in bone mass and an increase in bone fractures. Calcium also plays a role in muscle contraction, blood clotting and nerve function. Supracal provides calcium in the form of calcium citrate, which is good in absorption and bioavailability.
Vitamin D helps your body absorb calcium. Vitamin D is either derived from the diet or produced by skin exposure to sunshine, which can vary throughout the year. So in addition to getting enough calcium in your diet through food or supplements, you must be sure to get enough vitamin D and magnesium as well, to help calcium absorption. Supracal provides vitamin D in most activated form as D3.
Calcium citrate, type of calcium salt has absorption of 2.5 times better than calcium carbonate. Calcium citrate is less likely to cause gastric irritations and constipation. It also reduces the risk of kidney stone formation. Calcium citrate absoption does not get affected with meals or without meals. Supracal provides calcium in the form of calcium citrate.
