Product Description
Acid-A-CalTM provides acidifying compounds plus important vitamins, minerals, and citrus bioflavonoids that can help support balanced pH levels.* How are calcium absorption and balanced pH related? Because overly alkaline body fluids can make calcium harder to absorb. The body must maintain the proper acid-alkaline (pH) balance to function at optimal levels. Since calcium is essential for strengthening bones, it's important that your body be able to absorb it at proper levels.* Supplemental acidifying compounds such as ammonium chloride, betaine hydrochloride, and calcium phosphate can help support balanced pH levels.* Serving Size: 2 Capsules Amount/Serving %DV Total Carbohydrate <1g <1%† Vitamin C (ascorbic acid, from rose hips) 100mg 167% Vitamin B6 (as pyridoxine HCl) 50 mg 2,500% Calcium (as calcium chloride and dicalcium phosphate) 108mg 11% Magnesium (as magnesium glycerophosphate) 11mg 3% Ammonium Chloride 192 mg ** Betaine HCl 192 mg ** Kidney (freeze-dried, bovine source) 60mg ** Lemon (Citrus x limon) Fruit Bioflavonoids 60mg Frequently Asked Questions How does pH affect calcium absorption? Calcium absorption is optimal with normal mealtime stomach acidity. The acid of the stomach helps break up calcium so it can be absorbed in the intestines. Those without optimal stomach acidity, such as older people, may not absorb calcium as well as others. Why is there kidney extract in Acid-A-CalTM? The kidney is a critical organ in the filtering and release of different substances that are pulled from the blood. A critical component of maintaining proper pH is support of the kidneys. Kidney extract provides targeted support for the kidneys.†Feature
