The effectiveness of calcium ascorbate from Kala Health

The calcium ascorbate formula from Kala Health is of high quality. This buffered form of vitamin C generally causes less gastrointestinal problems than pure ascorbic acid (vitamin C). Calcium ascorbate is a form of vitamin C in which the ascorbic acid is bound to calcium. The dietary supplement calcium ascorbate is pH-neutral (acid-free) and causes much less digestive problems than vitamin C in the form of ascorbic acid. Vitamin C as ascorbic acid has been available for more than thirty years, but because of its acidic nature, it leads to digestive problems in many people. By adding calcium to vitamin C, calcium ascorbate develops as both a source of vitamin C and calcium. In the form of calcium ascorbate, ascorbic acid (vitamin C) is less acidic upon ingestion, more durable, and a food additive.

Dosage

Kala Health recommends that adults take 1 gram of calcium ascorbate per day, or as otherwise recommended. Mix the calcium ascorbate supplement with water or another liquid. Follow the recommended dosage. One level scoop of calcium ascorbate contains 900 mg of elemental ascorbic acid (vitamin C), or 1.125% of the RDA.

The European Commission currently authorizes 10 health claims that we may publish for ascorbic acid (vitamin C), being:

• Vitamin C contributes to the maintenance of the normal function of the immune system during and after intense physical exercise;
• Vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of blood vessels, bones, cartilage, gums, skin, and teeth;
• Vitamin C contributes to a normal energy-yielding metabolism;
• Vitamin C contributes to the normal function of the nervous system;
• Vitamin C contributes to normal psychological function;
• Vitamin C contributes to the normal function of the immune system;
• Vitamin C contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress;
• Vitamin C contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue;
• Vitamin C contributes to the regeneration of the reduced form of vitamin E;
• Vitamin C increases iron absorption.

In addition, the European Commission currently authorizes 10 health claims that we may publish for calcium, being:

• Calcium contributes to normal blood clotting;
• Calcium contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism;
• Calcium contributes to normal muscle function;
• Calcium contributes to normal neurotransmission;
• Calcium contributes to the normal function of digestive enzymes;
• Calcium plays a role in the process of cell division and specialization;
• Calcium is needed for the maintenance of normal bones;
• Calcium is needed for the maintenance of normal teeth;
• Calcium helps to reduce the loss of bone minerals in postmenopausal women. Low bone mineral density is a risk factor for osteoporotic bone fractures;
• Calcium is needed for the normal growth and development of bones in children.

These claims have been approved by the European Commission and may be used for calcium ascorbate dietary supplements that contain sufficient ascorbic acid and calcium to achieve the indicated effect.

Side Effects

Vitamin C is a safe (water-soluble) vitamin, even in high doses. However, consumers may experience gastrointestinal complaints such as nausea, bloating, abdominal cramps, or diarrhea with excessive dosages. Experiencing gastrointestinal complaints is a signal of bowel tolerance, indicating that the maximum effective dose of vitamin C has been reached. Calcium ascorbate is 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 reach of children. The calcium ascorbate dietary supplement contains vitamins and minerals, but the supplement is not a substitute for a varied diet. The calcium ascorbate supplement is suitable for vegans and free from yeast, lactose, gluten, preservatives, synthetic fragrance, color, and flavor.
