The effectiveness of calcium ascorbate capsules from Kala Health

The calcium ascorbate formula from Kala Health is of high quality. This buffered form of vitamin C generally causes fewer gastrointestinal problems than pure ascorbic acid (vitamin C). Calcium ascorbate is a form of vitamin C in which ascorbic acid is bound to calcium. Vitamin C capsules with calcium ascorbate are pH-neutral (acid-free) and cause much fewer digestive problems than vitamin C capsules in the form of ascorbic acid. Vitamin C as ascorbic acid has been available for over thirty years, but due to its acidic properties, it can cause digestive problems for many people. By adding calcium to vitamin C, calcium ascorbate capsules serve as a source of both vitamin C and calcium. In the form of calcium ascorbate, ascorbic acid (vitamin C) is less acidic when consumed, has a longer shelf life, and functions as a food additive.

Dosage

Kala Health advises adults to take 1 vitamin C capsule with calcium ascorbate daily, or as otherwise recommended. Take the vitamin C capsules with water or another fluid. Adhere to the recommended dosage. Kala Health’s vitamin C capsules contain 600 mg of calcium ascorbate, divided into 540 mg of ascorbic acid (vitamin C) and 42 mg of calcium, which corresponds to 675% and 5% of the Daily Recommended Amount (DRA) of vitamin C and calcium.

Side Effects

Vitamin C is generally safe, even in high doses, because it is a water-soluble vitamin. However, consumers may experience gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, flatulence, abdominal cramps, or diarrhea when taking excessively high doses. Experiencing these symptoms is an indication that the intestinal tolerance for vitamin C has been reached. Vitamin C capsules with calcium ascorbate are better tolerated and absorbed by consumers than pure ascorbic acid. Consumers are advised to choose calcium ascorbate for better absorption.

Safety

Store the calcium ascorbate dietary supplement in a cool, dark, and dry place, out of the reach of children. The vitamin C capsules with calcium ascorbate contain vitamins and minerals but are not a substitute for a varied diet. The vitamin C capsules are plant-based and suitable for vegans. Furthermore, the vitamin C capsules are free from yeast, lactose, gluten, preservatives, synthetic fragrances, colors, and flavors.
