Product Information
Calcium bound to citric acid is a well-absorbed form of
calcium.* Citric acid is a naturally occurring organic acid that is
able to efficiently bind three mineral molecules for every one of its
own molecules. Studies have shown significantly more calcium is
absorbed in the body from calcium citrate than from calcium carbonate.*
One study found patients with low hydrochloric acid levels absorbed an
average of 10 times more calcium from citrate than from carbonate.*
According
to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, adequate calcium throughout
life, as part of a well-balanced diet and physical activity, may reduce
the risk of osteoporosis later in life.
