The mineral we need the most

An adult has about one kilogram of calcium in their body. About 99 percent of this is found in bones and teeth, which thus also serve as calcium stores. The remaining calcium performs functions in muscles, nerves, and blood.

The German Nutrition Society (DGE) recommends that adults consume 1,000 mg of calcium per day. That sounds like a lot, and in fact, many people fall short of this amount, especially if milk and dairy products or calcium-rich plant-based foods such as kale are rarely part of their diet.

What Calcium Does in the Body

Calcium performs more functions than most people realize. These have been scientifically proven and are officially recognized. Health claims regarding the following effects of calcium are authorized in the EU:

  • Bones and teeth: Calcium is necessary for the maintenance of normal bones and teeth.
  • Muscles: Calcium contributes to normal muscle function.
  • Nerves: Calcium contributes to normal signal transmission between nerve cells.
  • Blood: Calcium contributes to normal blood clotting.
  • Energy metabolism & Digestion: Calcium contributes to normal energy metabolism and the normal function of digestive enzymes.
  • Cells: Calcium plays a role in cell division and specialization.

Why Calcium and Vitamin D Go Hand in Hand

Vitamin D supports the absorption and utilization of calcium. Vitamin D is needed to ensure that calcium is absorbed more efficiently from the intestines. There is also a recognized health claim for this: Vitamin D contributes to the normal absorption and utilization of calcium and phosphorus, as well as to normal blood calcium levels.

That’s why many supplements combine both nutrients from the start, such as our Calcium Effervescent Tablets 400 mg with vitamin D3, vitamin C, and vitamin K1. If you’d like to take vitamin D as a separate supplement, you’ll find other suitable products under vitamin D3.

Buying calcium: 600 mg, 400 mg, or a combination supplement?

  • 600 mg Calcium Tablets: The classic option with a higher single dose, plus vitamins D3, K1, and K2. Ideal for anyone who prefers a higher dose of calcium.
  • Calcium Effervescent Tablets 400 mg: Dissolved in water, with orange flavor. A pleasant option for anyone who has trouble swallowing tablets and prefers to take calcium as a drink. At the same time, they help you stay hydrated.
  • Combinations for Bone Health: Nobilin Osteokomplex and Nobilin Mineral Plus® combine calcium with other minerals and vitamins.

Who should pay special attention to calcium intake:

  • if you avoid or are intolerant to milk and dairy products,
  • if you follow a vegan diet,
  • as you age and during menopause, when your needs increase,
  • if you regularly consume large amounts of coffee or alcohol, as this can affect your calcium balance.

If you’re unsure, have existing health concerns, or take medication regularly, please consult your doctor before taking any supplements.
