NOW Foods Calcium Carbonate Powder (340 g) contains pure calcium carbonate in powder form. Half a level teaspoon of 1.7 g provides 600 mg of elemental calcium. The powder consists solely of calcium carbonate and is suitable for vegans. You simply mix it into juice with pulp, such as tomato or orange juice, preferably during a meal. With around 200 servings per container, daily use gives you over 6 months from one pot.
Calcium is a mineral naturally found in nature, for example in limestone, chalk, and shells. You also get calcium through your diet.
Calcium is naturally found in, among others, milk, yoghurt, cheese, green leafy vegetables such as kale and broccoli, almonds, sesame seeds, tofu, and sardines with bones.
Calcium carbonate is a compound of calcium, carbon, and oxygen. It naturally occurs in limestone, chalk, marble, eggshells, and shells, and is a commonly used form of calcium in food supplements.
Elemental calcium is the amount of pure calcium in a calcium compound. In this product, 1.7 g of calcium carbonate provides 600 mg of elemental calcium. On the label, you will therefore see both the amount of calcium carbonate and the amount of calcium it contains.
Calcium carbonate does not dissolve in water and therefore quickly sinks to the bottom of your glass. In a thicker juice with pulp, the powder stays better distributed, making it easier to drink all at once.
