Raw Material & Ingredients

China has the largest resources and production capacity for natural and fine chemical raw materials in the world. Overseas companies are looking increasingly towards China as their preferred source for quality ingredients. Purchasing directly from the supply country may cut millions from intermediary costs if the right contact is made.

Calcium L-Threonate

Latin Name:
Country:China
Specification:
Testing Method:USP
Pack Size:25 kg/drum
Description:Scientists are constantly trying to develop a better form of calcium. Although the standard is calcium carbonate, other mild acids are often paired with this bone-building mineral. The newest is threonic acid, a metabolite formed in the body from ascorbic acid (vitamin C). Scientists claim threonic acid plus calcium has better test-tube absorption compared with other calcium forms.1 Researchers have shown that calcium threonate stimulates the biomineralization process in human gum tissue when combined with vitamin C in a culture dish.2 In a recent animal study, researchers found calcium threonate had better absorption than other forms.3

In additional studies, researchers describe calcium threonate's effect on animals with osteoporosis induced by removal of the ovaries or testes, and in children with rickets, a vitamin D-deficiency disease that rarely manifests in developed countries. To further validate the strength of this promising new form of calcium, we need adult studies showing both superior absorption (enough to offset the premium price) and superior effects on bone density and fracture risk.
