Product Description

Calcium citrate is an organic calcium salt formed by the chemical reaction of citric acid and calcium ions. It is generally a pure white, fine powder with a faint, almost odorless smell. It has a pure, loose texture and stable overall chemical properties, and is not easily affected by moisture or deterioration at room temperature. Compared to common inorganic calcium sources such as calcium carbonate, it has better water solubility and dissolves stably in both weakly acidic and weakly alkaline environments in the human body. It does not rely on stomach acid for decomposition and activation, making it very gentle on the gastrointestinal mucosa and unlikely to cause bloating, acid reflux, or stomach discomfort. It is suitable for long-term consumption by people with sensitive stomachs. Calcium citrate has excellent bioavailability. After entering the body, it releases calcium ions slowly and gradually, resulting in a gentle and sustained absorption process. Blood calcium levels rise slowly, preventing excessive calcium deposition and effectively improving calcium utilization. Simultaneously, citrate ions can help regulate the body's metabolic environment, reducing the formation of precipitates by oxalic acid, phosphoric acid, and other substances combined with calcium, thus lowering the potential risk of kidney stones. It can also indirectly promote the synergistic metabolism and balanced operation of various minerals in the body. Its natural and mild properties make it a mainstream high-quality calcium supplement in dietary supplements, functional foods, dairy products, and health products. It can continuously replenish calcium for the human body, help maintain the structure of bones and teeth, maintain bone density and bone toughness, ensure normal muscle contraction, nerve signal transmission, and electrolyte homeostasis, and meet the body's daily calcium consumption and physiological needs. The raw material has a high safety level and excellent compatibility, and can be well integrated with various vitamins, trace elements, amino acids, and plant extracts. It has a wide range of formulation compatibility and is currently the most widely used and highly recognized organic mineral nutrient raw material in the health and nutrition field.

What are the benefits?

Calcium citrate is a common calcium supplement with the following main benefits:

1. Promotes bone health:

Calcium is a major component of bones. Calcium citrate effectively supplements calcium, promotes bone growth, increases bone density, and helps prevent osteoporosis. It is especially suitable for children, adolescents, pregnant women, breastfeeding women, and the elderly.

2. Supports tooth development:

Calcium is essential for tooth development and strength. Supplementing with calcium citrate helps promote tooth development and prevents tooth loosening and loss.

3. Maintains neuromuscular function:

Calcium ions are crucial for nerve conduction and muscle contraction. Calcium citrate supplements calcium ions in the body, maintaining normal neuromuscular excitability and preventing muscle spasms, cramps, or weakness caused by calcium deficiency.

4. Participates in blood clotting mechanisms:

Calcium ions play an important role in blood clotting. Calcium citrate supplements calcium, helping to maintain normal blood clotting function and prevent excessive bleeding.

5. Regulates acid-base balance:

After being metabolized in the body, calcium citrate helps neutralize excess acidic substances, maintaining acid-base balance and alleviating discomfort caused by acid-base imbalance.

6. Aids Digestion and Gut Health
Some studies have shown that calcium citrate may promote gastric acid secretion, which helps with food digestion. At the same time, its mild nature causes less irritation to the gastrointestinal tract, making it suitable for people with weak gastrointestinal function or those prone to constipation.

Application directions

1. Food Industry

Nutritional Fortifiers: Used in infant formula, nutritional rice cereal, high-calcium milk, soy milk, fruit juice, and solid beverages to supplement calcium, promote bone development, and are especially suitable for people with sensitive stomachs.
Food Additives: Used as tissue coagulants and emulsifying salts in canned goods, jellies, and pastries to improve texture and stability.
Sports Nutrition Foods: Added to protein powder, energy bars, and electrolyte drinks to help athletes supplement calcium and prevent bone damage.

2. Medical Industry

Calcium Supplements: Used to treat calcium deficiency, such as osteoporosis and rickets, with high absorption rates and minimal gastrointestinal irritation.
Anticoagulants: Used in medical settings such as hemodialysis and extracorporeal circulation to inhibit blood clotting by chelating calcium ions, reducing the risk of bleeding.
Anti-inflammatory Agents: Inhibit the production of intracellular reactive oxygen species, assisting in the treatment of inflammatory diseases.
Bone Repair Materials: As candidate materials for bone defect repair, promote bone tissue regeneration and are often used in combination with other biomaterials.

3. Feed Industry

Animal Calcium Supplementation: Increases calcium content in feed, promotes bone development, improves meat quality, and enhances stress resistance.
Digestive Regulators: Stimulates gastric acid secretion, improves feed palatability, promotes nutrient absorption, and reduces diarrhea rates.

4. Agriculture Industry

Hydroponic Nutrient Solution: Supplements plants with calcium as a source, prevents precipitation by combining with phosphates and carbonates, stabilizes the pH of the nutrient solution, enhances crop resistance, and prevents fruit cracking and heart rot.
Soil Improvement: Adjusts soil pH, improves soil structure, and promotes plant root development.

5. Chemical Industry

Chlorinating Agents: Used in water treatment, metal surface treatment, etc., to chelate metal ions and prevent precipitation and corrosion.
Buffers: Adjusts solution pH and maintains the stability of chemical reactions.
