1. which calcium supplement is the best?
Many people wonder how to find the best calcium supplement. Nowadays, there are a lot of different calcium supplements on the dietary supplement market. A good calcium preparation should be produced under high quality standards. It is best if the preparation is produced in Germany to ensure high quality. In Germany, particularly high and strict guidelines apply in terms of hygiene and controls on harmful substances. In other countries, such as the USA, different rules and limits for harmful substances and ingredients apply in some cases. The ingredients are particularly important in a multimineral preparation. It is best if there are pure minerals and trace elements in the capsule. This way, additives and fillers can be avoided.
2. the daily requirement of calcium
The daily requirement of calcium depends on age and gender. The German Nutrition Society (DGE) recommends a daily calcium intake of approx. 900-1000 mg for adults. For infants, an amount of about 500 mg is sufficient. Pregnant and breastfeeding women, on the other hand, should consume about 1300 mg of calcium, since they have to provide for their offspring. However, the daily requirement may vary depending on body size and weight.
3. causes of calcium deficiency
The causes of calcium deficiency can vary greatly. Important factors are gender, height, weight and the current situation:
- Pregnancy
- Lactation
- Taking certain medications
- Alcoholism
- Kidney disease
- hormonal disorders
4. calcium in the form of dietary supplements
If you want to increase a calcium level that is too low with a dietary supplement, you should definitely pay attention to the form of the active ingredient and its origin. Calcium capsules are particularly suitable for increasing calcium levels. They are very well tolerated and are utilized by the body to a high degree. Likewise, the preparation should not contain any chemical additives. If you buy a preparation from Germany, you can be sure that the product has also been produced safely and is of high quality.
