Why is calcium a good conductor?

Calcium is not a good conductor of electricity. In fact, it is a poor conductor of electricity because it has a full outer electron shell, making it difficult for electrons to move freely within the material. This lack of mobility of electrons restricts the flow of electric current through calcium.


How bioavailable and useful is TriCalcium Phosphate as a form of dietary Calcium in humans?

The design was randomized crossover, within-subject. The subjects were 25 healthy premenopausal women in an academic health sciences center. Two commercially marketed calcium-fortified orange juices, ingested in an amount providing 500 mg calcium, were taken at breakfast after an overnight fast. The two fortification systems tested were calcium citrate malate and a combination of tricalcium phosphate and calcium lactate (tricalcium phosphate/calcium lactate). The main outcome measure was the area under the curve (AUC) for the increase in serum calcium from 0 to 9 hours after ingesting the test calcium source. Statistical analyses performed were repeated measures analysis of variance, testing source, and sequence. AUC 9 was 48% greater for calcium citrate malate than for tricalcium phosphate/calcium lactate ( P < .001); absorbed calcium calculated from AUC 9 values (mean+/-standard error of the mean) was 148+/-9.0 mg and 100+/-8.9 mg for calcium citrate malate and tricalcium phosphate/calcium lactate, respectively. The results indicate that equivalent calcium contents on a nutritional label do not guarantee equivalent nutritional value. Nutritionists and dietetics professionals should encourage manufacturers of fortified products to provide information on bioavailability.

What is the FDA rule of good source oc calcium?

The FDA defines "good source of calcium" as a food that contains 10% to 19% of the Daily Value (DV) for calcium per serving. This translates to at least 100 to 199 milligrams of calcium. Foods meeting this criterion can use the label claim "good source of calcium" to inform consumers about their nutritional content. This regulation helps guide consumers in making informed dietary choices regarding calcium intake.
