Definition:

A chemical substance with the molecular formula C4H8CaN2O4

Composition:

calcium glycinate content 96.0-98.0%, loss on drying ≤6.0%

Physical and chemical properties: white crystalline powder, easy to absorb moisture, slightly soluble in water.

Application areas:

Calcium is the most abundant and important mineral element in the human body, accounting for about 2% of adult body weight, and it plays a special role in life activities. Although people began to supplement calcium in the form of oral calcium-containing preparations for a long time, they often failed to achieve good results. In the process of studying calcium absorption, scientists found that calcium supplementation in the form of elemental calcium can easily lead to the failure of calcium absorption. Therefore, in the past 20 years, various forms of ionized calcium have been developed, and calcium has been complexed with amino acids to develop calcium glycinate. product. Calcium glycinate is an advanced new generation product among calcium nutrition enhancers in today's society. Due to the unique physiological and biochemical functions of amino acids, it is easy to be absorbed and utilized by the human body after being combined with calcium ions. It has dual functions of nutrition and treatment. It has stable chemical structure, good water solubility, high absorption rate, and has a wide range of development and application prospects.

Calcium glycinate has been proved by clinical trials to be a biologically active small molecule organic calcium with superior biological compatibility. It is an effective carrier of calcium ions. It can be recognized by the cell membrane as a biologically active substance that is allowed to pass through. The cell membrane on the intestine is directly absorbed by the intestine, so it can achieve an absorption rate of more than 90% and an absorption capacity of 180 mg/kg.

Calcium glycinate can be fortified in dairy products (milk powder, milk, soy milk, etc.), solid beverages, cereal health products, salt and other foods.
