Pure Encapsulations® Calcium

You're reading an Auto-translation.

Calcium citrate is the form of the mineral calcium bound to citric acid. As an organic compound, it has very good bioavailability and is therefore particularly well absorbed by the body. Your body contains about 1 kilogram of calcium, making this mineral one of the most abundant in the body. Almost all of the calcium content is stored in your bones, which makes sense, because it is essential for maintaining normal bones and teeth. But calcium can do even more: muscle function, energy metabolism and signal transmission between your individual nerve cells all depend on your daily calcium requirement being met. The recommended daily intake of calcium (daily requirement) for adults is about 1000 mg, for growing adolescents the reference value of the German Nutrition Society (DGE) is somewhat higher. Athletic training or menopause in women can also lead to an increased need. The supply is very individual, because many people today are lactose intolerant or verzichten on dairy products, which are the best sources of calcium. A supplementary supply through calcium capsules can therefore make sense. Calcium citrate or calcium carbonate – what is the difference? Calcium is available in different compounds, the most well-known of which are calcium carbonate and calcium citrate. Calcium carbonate is a salt of carbonic acid, which is also very common in nature, for example in corals, snail and mussel shells or limestone. Calcium citrate is calcium bound to citric acid (citrate) and it is important to know that citric acid is also a substance that occurs naturally in the body. It has a better bioavailability than calcium carbonate and is also gentler on the stomach, making it suitable for sensitive people. Calcium capsules to cover an increased daily requirement Calcium citrate from Pure Encapsulations® contains organically bound, pure calcium with optimal bioavailability. This allows your body to easily absorb and process it, so that it reaches wherever it is needed. The calcium capsules are very well tolerated and are particularly suitable for people with increased needs as well as for lactose intolerance and the avoidance of dairy products. The recommended daily dose provides a good amount of 900 mg of calcium to cover the daily requirement.
