Calcium aspartate is a chelate of aspartic acid and calcium, also known as L-aspartate calcium, nano amino acid chelated calcium, or AACa for short. It is made of L-aspartic acid and calcium hydroxide, calcium oxide or calcium carbonate. It uses nanotechnology and chelation technology to tightly embed one calcium ion between two L-aspartic acid molecules to form a third-generation molecular calcium source with a stable structure.
Calcium aspartate is a white powder, odorless, hygroscopic, easily soluble in water, and difficult to dissolve in organic solvents. Calcium aspartate is a third-generation molecular calcium source. Compared with the first-generation inorganic calcium and the second-generation organic acid calcium, it has the characteristics of high solubility, high absorption rate, no side effects, good stability, and high bioavailability. Its absorption rate is as high as 90%, which is much higher than the 30% of traditional ionic calcium sources.
Calcium Aspartate is gaining attention as an effective molecular calcium source with superior absorption rates and excellent stability in food supplements. As a key player in the production of high-quality calcium ingredients, Joyful Nutritional is proud to offer Calcium Aspartate for use in dietary supplements and fortified foods. With its unique ability to provide easily absorbable calcium, Calcium Aspartate is ideal for supporting bone health, muscle function, and overall calcium intake.
Why Use Calcium Aspartate in Food Supplements?
1. High Absorption Rate
Calcium Aspartate is known for its high bioavailability, meaning that it is efficiently absorbed by the body. This makes it a highly effective form of calcium supplementation, particularly for individuals looking to improve their bone health and calcium intake. Compared to other calcium salts, Calcium Aspartate has a higher absorption rate, ensuring that more of the nutrient reaches the bloodstream and is utilized by the body.
2. Good Stability in Supplement Formulations
One of the standout properties of Calcium Aspartate is its stability. It remains stable in a variety of supplement forms, including tablets, capsules, and powders, making it an ideal ingredient for food supplements. Its stability ensures that the calcium content remains consistent throughout the product’s shelf life, offering consumers a reliable and long-lasting source of calcium.
3. Molecular Calcium Source
As a molecular calcium source, Calcium Aspartate delivers calcium at the molecular level, promoting efficient absorption and utilization in the body. The chelation with aspartic acid enhances the mineral’s transport into cells, ensuring that calcium is delivered where it’s needed most—supporting bone density, muscle function, and nerve transmission.
4. Gentle on the Digestive System
Unlike some traditional calcium supplements that may cause digestive discomfort such as bloating, constipation, or nausea, Calcium Aspartate is gentler on the stomach. This makes it a preferred choice for individuals who may have sensitive digestion but still need to meet their daily calcium requirements.
