Active Ingredients & Science
The main ingredient in Kid Cal is calcium in the form of calcium carbonate, one of the most commonly used and cost-effective forms with good bioavailability. Calcium is a mineral naturally found in the body and is important for various functions. The product also contains small amounts of vitamin D, which contributes to the absorption and metabolism of calcium in the body. Thanks to this well-established combination, a stable and reliable quality suitable for children is ensured.
Benefits & Uses
- Suitable for children who need to supplement their calcium intake, for example during growth spurts or limited dietary intake.
- Small, chewable tablets that are easy for children to take without difficulty.
- Can be used during times when the child is especially active and needs to ensure consistent mineral intake.
- A practical supplement for families seeking a reliable calcium source without artificial flavours or unnecessary additives.
- Ideal during the school year or periods of varied diet to help maintain balanced mineral levels.
Usage & Dosage
The recommended dose is 1 tablet daily, preferably with a meal for optimal absorption. It is easy to incorporate Kid Cal into the child's daily routine, for example at breakfast or lunch. The product can be combined with other vitamins and minerals formulated for children, but it is important not to exceed recommended doses. Parents should always check that the child does not receive excessive calcium from multiple sources simultaneously.
