It is more than proven that many diets do not provide adequate levels of calcium. In United Kingdom, 71% of the adolescents between 16 and 18 years do not reach the recommended level of calcium through their diets, and a quarter of children 4 years follows this same trend, so calcium supplementation is relevant for many people. Insufficient intake between young women and adult women is particularly worrying since obtaining an optimal bone density before the 30 aid in maintaining strong bones in old age. Calcium tablets tend to be very bulky and, therefore, we have developed these chewable tablets of calcium, pleasant lemon flavour, to facilitate their intake and encourage their use. While the majority of manufacturers use sugar in their chewable formulas, we have used a type of soluble fiber with sweet called fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS). This natural material is extracted from the chicory root and has the advantage of not causing tooth decay. In addition, preliminary studies have shown that the FOS may increase the absorption of calcium.
