Calcium Orotate is the Best Absorbed Calcium Compound
Orotate molecules can cross the cell membrane, delivering the mineral ion to the innermost layers of the cell, reaching the mitochondria and nucleus. Other calcium supplements, such as calcium carbonate, citrate, gluconate, lactate, malate, and phosphate, cannot penetrate into the membranes as orotates can.
Calcium is Necessary for Maintaining Strong Bones
When the body does not get enough calcium from the diet, it begins to take it from the bones, which can lead to weak and brittle bones over time. It's important to note that, as we age, the body's ability to absorb calcium decreases, making it more difficult to maintain strong bones. This is why older adults and postmenopausal women, in particular, need to be especially mindful of their calcium intake.
Magnesium and Calcium Work Together, but may Interfere with Each Other's Absorption when Taken at the Same Time
Magnesium can affect calcium absorption by competing for the same absorption sites in the gut and reducing the amount of calcium that is absorbed. To minimize the interaction between calcium and magnesium, it is recommended to take them in a ratio of 2:1 (calcium:magnesium) as it is the ratio that is found in natural sources such as food.
