Description of Generic Calcium 600 mg tablets
Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body and more than 99% of the body’s calcium is found in our bones. Its major function is in building and maintaining bones and teeth, but it is also important in many enzymatic reactions in the body. Calcium is also necessary for the contraction of muscles, the release of neurotransmitters, regulation of heart beat, and the clotting of blood. Over time, a calcium deficiency may ultimately lead to osteoporosis, which thins and weakens bones making them frail to the point where they break easily. The symptoms of osteoporosis may not be noticed until most of the bone loss has already occurred. Exercise and a healthful diet with adequate Calcium intake throughout life are important for teen, young adult and postmenopausal women. Osteoporosis affects middle-aged and older people, especially those with a family history of fragile bones in later years. Calcium supplementation is a key factor in helping to prevent osteoporosis.

Calcium carbonate requires stomach acid to be absorbed and should be consumed with food. Calcium tablets are recommended to be part of a daily regimen for the Women’s Health, Family Health, Bone/Joint Health, Prenatal, 4 Basic Vitamins, Diet/Weight Management.
