Nutraceuticals
Natural ways to boost calcium in nutraceuticals
Our precipitated calcium carbonates (PCC) are excellent active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) for calcium supplementation in nutraceuticals and drugs designed to prevent diseases such as osteoporosis.
Imerys pharmaceutical-grade precipitated calcium carbonates provide an excellent source of calcium, making them ingredients of choice for calcium supplementation in drugs and nutraceuticals such as sport nutrition products and baby formulas and foods.
We recommend our Calcius® range for calcium supplementation in nutraceuticals and drugs. Calcius is suitable for swallowable, effervescent and chewable products, as well as supplements in powder form.
