Calcium requirement - how much do I need?
Calcium is essential for you and your health. However, your body cannot produce this mineral itself, so you have to get it from food.
How much calcium you need each day is individual and depends on various factors such as bone condition, hormonal fluctuations, lifestyle habits and age.
The average daily requirement of an adult is around 300 to 400 milligrams, but as only a third of the calcium from food is actually utilized, a general recommendation of 1000 milligrams applies.
However, the National Consumption Study II showed that both men with an average of 807 mg calcium and women with 738 mg calcium are below the recommended daily intake.
All the more reason for us to give you the mineral as a free upgrade to your Inner Beauty drink. Just one capsule covers 50% of your daily calcium requirement.
The most important functions of calcium
Calcium is essential for healthy bones and teeth, but it also fulfills many other tasks in your body. It controls the transmission of nerve signals, supports the work of your muscles and is very important for blood clotting.
Calcium is also essential for your Gut, as the mineral supports your digestive enzymes in breaking down food into its individual components. Only if this process runs smoothly can you benefit from the vitamins, minerals and phytochemicals and make the most of the benefits.
According to the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), there is scientific evidence that calcium:
- contributes to normal signal transmission between nerve cells.
- contributes to a normal energy metabolism.
- contributes to normal muscle function.
- contributes to normal blood clotting.
- contributes to the maintenance of normal bones and teeth.
- contributes to the normal function of digestive enzymes.
- is involved in cell division.
Calcium-rich foods - prevent nutrient deficiency!
Calcium is found in many natural foods. Milk and dairy products certainly come to mind first. For example, 200 ml of cow's milk provides you with around 240 mg of calcium, covering just under a quarter of your daily calcium requirement.
Cheeses such as Parmesan, Emmental or Tilsiter are also particularly rich in calcium.
But you can also cover your requirements with plant-based foods. Broccoli, kale, rocket, spinach, chickpeas, linseed and dried figs in particular are excellent plant-based sources of calcium.
Did you know that mineral water is also a good source of calcium? Mineral waters that are particularly rich in calcium can contain over 500 mg of calcium per liter.
Inspiration needed? Our Green Smoothie contains calcium from spinach, lamb's lettuce and celery as well as valuable vitamins and phytochemicals.
However, how well your body can absorb calcium from food also depends on the supply of other nutrients. You should pay particular attention to vitamin D here, as it supports the absorption and storage of calcium in bones and teeth.
However, vitamin D is only found in a few foods, but your body is able to produce it itself as long as you get enough UVB sunlight.
Definitely doable in summer, but rather difficult in winter when the days are dull and dark. In this case, it may make sense to take vitamin D as a dietary supplement in consultation with your GP.
Conclusion
Calcium is essential for your body and fulfills many important tasks . Your intestinal balance in particular benefits from the mineral, as it supports your digestive enzymes in their work. Calcium should therefore not be missing from your daily routine.
The best for last - the price remains the same!
