Calcium is a water-soluble mineral and will begin to work quickly. Some people even report a change in muscle function after just a few days! By day 90 (depending on your starting calcium status), you should now be reaching a healthy cellular level of calcium and reaping the benefits for bones and teeth.

Ethical Nutrition's Calcium Citrate offers a range of health benefits:

Bone Health: Calcium is vital for the development and maintenance of strong bones. Regular intake of Calcium Citrate can help to reduce the risk of osteoporosis [1].
Heart Function: Calcium is necessary for the normal functioning of the heart. It helps regulate heart rhythm and is involved in the process of blood clotting [2].
Muscle Function: Calcium plays a crucial role in muscle contraction and relaxation. It also aids in maintaining healthy muscle function [3].
Nerve Transmission: Calcium is involved in nerve signal transmission, which is critical for many bodily functions, including movement and sensory processing [4].

Different forms of calcium offer varying degrees of bioavailability, meaning they are absorbed and used by the body at different rates. Calcium Citrate stands out due to its superior absorption compared to other forms such as Calcium Carbonate. Not only is it more readily absorbed and utilized by the body, but it is also gentler on the stomach, which can be a significant advantage for individuals with sensitive digestion. This enhanced bioavailability and decreased risk of side effects such as gas or constipation make Calcium Citrate a preferred choice for many individuals [5][6].

Almost anyone can benefit from Calcium Citrate. However, individuals at risk of osteoporosis, those experiencing muscle cramps or spasms, individuals with heart irregularities, and those looking to support nerve function may find it particularly beneficial [8].
