NOW Foods Calcium Citrate Powder (227 g) contains pure calcium citrate, a form of calcium bound to citric acid. With one and a half level teaspoons, about 3 g, you get 600 mg of elemental calcium. The powder is made entirely from calcium citrate, mixes well and is suitable for vegans. You simply stir it into a juice with pulp, such as tomato or orange juice, and take it daily with a meal. With about 76 servings, one pot will last you over 2.5 months.
Calcium citrate is a compound of calcium and citric acid. It is a white powder that is widely used in food supplements and is also found in foods, for example as an additive in fortified drinks.
Citric acid is an acid that naturally occurs in citrus fruits, such as lemons, limes and oranges. For use in food and supplements, it is usually produced through fermentation.
Calcium is naturally present in many foods, such as dairy products, cheese, green vegetables, nuts, seeds and legumes. In addition, there are plant-based drinks and other products to which calcium has been added.
Elemental calcium is the amount of pure calcium in a calcium compound. In this product, 3,000 mg of calcium citrate provides 600 mg of elemental calcium.
Calcium citrate contains relatively little pure calcium per gram. Therefore, for 600 mg of calcium, you need about 3 g of powder, which equals one and a half level teaspoons.
Calcium citrate mixes well, but only dissolves to a limited extent in water. As a result, some of the powder may settle at the bottom of your glass after a while. In a thicker juice with pulp, the powder stays better distributed so you can easily drink the entire serving in one go.
