Nutricost Calcium Lactate 2,100mg; 180 Capsules – Vegan, Non-GMO and Gluten-free, 60 Servings

Looking for a highly absorbable form of calcium? Nutricost Calcium Lactate delivers 260 mg of elemental calcium per capsule in a gentle, easily tolerated form. Whether you're aiming to support bone health or muscle function, this supplement fits seamlessly into a daily routine. It is vegan, non-GMO, and gluten-free, making it suitable for a wide range of dietary needs.

Why Choose Calcium Lactate Over Other Forms?

Calcium lactate is renowned for its excellent bioavailability. Unlike calcium carbonate, which relies on stomach acid for absorption, calcium lactate is well absorbed even in those with reduced stomach acidity. This makes it a gentler option for individuals with sensitive digestion. Each serving provides 260 mg of elemental calcium from 2,100 mg of calcium lactate, allowing you to tailor your dosage precisely. Plus, Nutricost ensures rigorous quality control – the product is manufactured in an NSF-certified, GMP-compliant facility and every batch is independently tested by third-party, ISO-accredited laboratories for purity and potency.

Who Might Benefit from a Calcium Supplement?

Certain groups may find a calcium supplement particularly beneficial, such as postmenopausal women, older adults, those with lactose intolerance or dairy allergies, and individuals following vegan diets. If your daily dietary intake of calcium falls short of the recommended 1,000–1,200 mg, a supplement can help fill the gap. Nutricost Calcium Lactate offers a convenient, reliable source of this vital mineral for those with specific dietary requirements.

How Calcium Supports Your Body

Calcium is essential for the maintenance of normal bones and teeth. It also contributes to normal muscle function, nerve transmission, and blood clotting. Adequate calcium intake throughout life, as part of a balanced diet and healthy lifestyle, may help reduce the risk of osteoporosis in later years. This product is a food supplement and should not replace a varied diet.

Choosing the Right Dosage for You

The recommended daily intake for adults is 1,000–1,200 mg of calcium, but it is best to spread doses throughout the day for optimal absorption. With 260 mg per capsule, you can take two to four capsules daily to meet your target. Always consult a health care professional before starting any supplement, especially if you have a history of kidney stones or are taking other medications.

Potential Side Effects and Safety

Calcium supplements are generally well tolerated, but some people may experience mild digestive discomfort such as constipation or bloating. Taking the supplement with meals can help. Do not exceed the recommended dosage, as excessive calcium intake (over 2,500 mg per day) may increase the risk of kidney stones. If you have kidney problems or hypercalcaemia, consult your doctor before uses. This product is manufactured under strict quality standards in an NSF-certified facility.

Quality Assurance You Can Trust

Nutricost prioritises quality. Every bottle of Calcium Lactate is produced in an NSF-certified, GMP-compliant facility, and each batch undergoes independent testing by third-party, ISO-accredited laboratories to verify purity and potency. This commitment ensures you receive a reliable supplement every time.
