Ingredient overview
What it is
Calcium citrate malate combines calcium with citric and malic acids to create a highly soluble mineral complex. It remains relatively soluble across different stomach-acid conditions.
- Scientific identity: Calcium Citrate Malate; ingredient form: Calcium citrate malate complex.
- How it works: A defined complex, not a simple salt: Calcium is combined with two fruit acids, citric and malic, into a soluble complex developed to overcome calcium's reluctance to dissolve. Dissolves reliably in the gut: Solubility depends little on stomach acid, so it behaves consistently with food or on an empty stomach.
- Primary function: Calcium contributes to bone mineralisation, normal muscle contraction and everyday skeletal maintenance.
- What it supports: Calcium Citrate Malate provides readily soluble calcium to support resilient bones, healthy teeth and confident everyday movement.
- Important consideration: The elemental mineral amount is more meaningful than the weight of its source compound.
