Calcium
Calcium is a vital nutrient found in various foods such as dairy products, certain vegetables, and many fortified items. Over 99% of the body's calcium is stored in the bones and teeth, predominantly as hydroxyapatite. The remaining calcium circulates in the blood, extracellular fluid, muscles, and other tissues, where it is essential for processes like nerve signaling, muscle contraction, vascular activities, glandular secretion, and maintaining cell membrane and capillary permeability. It also plays critical roles in enzyme reactions, respiration, kidney function, and blood clotting, and is involved in neurotransmitter and hormone release, amino acid uptake, vitamin B12 absorption, and gastrin secretion. Calcium balance changes with age: it is positive during periods of growth, stable in adulthood, and tends to become negative in older age. Calcium loss occurs through feces, urine, sweat, and shedding skin cells. In women, reduced estrogen levels decrease calcium absorption and retention, increase bone turnover, and lead to lower bone mass. Calcium supplements come in various forms, including citrate and carbonate, which differ mainly in their calcium content and absorption rates. Calcium citrate is easily absorbed and can be taken without food, making it suitable for older adults or those with low stomach acid. In contrast, calcium carbonate, which contains a higher percentage of calcium, is best absorbed when taken with meals.

Bamboo shoot extract
Description:Bamboo, a type of giant grass, encompasses over 1,000 species in dozens of genera, primarily found in Asia. The plant's shoots are harvested for food and medicine, offering protein, carbohydrates, and vitamins. Bamboo shoot preparation is crucial, as they contain cyanogenic glycosides, which, when converted to hydrogen cyanide, can be toxic. Proper boiling or fermentation eliminates cyanide, rendering bamboo shoots safe to eat. Limited research suggests potential anti-cancer effects from bamboo leaf extract, but more studies are needed. Additionally, bamboo extracts have shown thyroid effects in laboratory and animal studies, inhibiting thyroid peroxidase activity and potentially leading to hypothyroidism.
