Globally, 153k tons1 of calcium ingredients are being formulated into nutritional supplements with 36% of the new product launches between 2015-2019 containing calcium in the form of calcium carbonate2. However, these other forms of calcium are limited and do not fully provide the body with what bones need for proper support. Consumers are generally aware that calcium sourced from milk is good for the body but it also contributes a host of other beneficial minerals that provide balanced mineral support for bone health. TruCal is a balanced milk mineral complex delivering 7 minerals (Calcium, Phosphorus, Magnesium, Potassium, Zinc, Iron and Copper) all at similar levels to the normal mineral composition of bone.

Studies Show Superior Results Compared to Calcium Carbonate
TruCal Showed Superior Results to Calcium Carbonate for Bone Breakdown10

- TruCal significantly lowered Urine Helical Peptide (UHP), which indicates a reduction in the level of bone breakdown and resorption.
- Calcium carbonate induced no change.
TruCal Showed Superior Results to Calcium Carbonate for Bone Turnover10

- TruCal significantly lowered Bone Alkaline Phosphatase (BAP), which indicates a reduction in the level of bone turnover.
- Calcium carbonate induced no change.
Ideal for a Wide Range of Applications
