Calci Sodas :: Frequently Asked Questions
Do you have a question not answered below? If so, please contact us.
Q: What allows you to put the word “healthy” on your Calci Sodas’ labels?
A: Simple stated: Calci Sodas have 20 percent of the daily calcium per serving and the calcium/phosphorus ratio is “correct”. Therefore, they are “healthy.”
In other words, because of the high ratio and mix of minerals in Calci Sodas (i.e., the 200 mg of calcium, 80 mg of magnesium, 160 mg of phosphorus per 8-ounce serving, Calci Sodas are healthy.
Please see below for the health benefits of these four important minerals.
Q: What are the health benefits of calcium?
A: Each 8-ounce serving of Calci Sodas contains 200 mg of calcium, which is 20 percent of your recommended daily allowance. Even more important, Calci Sodas use a soluble form of calcium, called Clear Calcium®—which is provided courtesy of MinTech’s technology. Since Clear Calcium® is a soluble form it is “in solution” and easily available to the body.
Calcium is the mineral most likely to be deficient in the average diet (which is why Calci Sodas are so healthy for you). Calcium salts comprise approximately 70 percent of bone by weight and is what gives your bone strength and rigidity. Calcium is the chief supportive element in bones and teeth. Inadequate levels of calcium can lead to osteoporosis.
Q: What are the health benefits of magnesium?
A: Each 8-ounce serving of Calci Sodas contains 80 mg of magnesium, which is 20 percent of your recommended daily allowance.
Magnesium is a water-insoluble mineral that is stored throughout the body. It is vital for the formation of healthy bones and teeth. Magnesium is required for the formation of enzymes that release energy from food. It is essential for life, as it plays a major role in the metabolism of glucose. Magnesium is also used in the production of cellular energy and in the creation of protein.
According to the National Institutes of Health, magnesium offers many health benefits. Magnesium may be involved in the prevention or treatment of osteoporosis, high blood pressure (hypertension), diabetes, and cardiovascular disease.
Consult your personal doctor if you have any question about how much calcium or magnesium you personally need.
Q: What are the health benefits of phosphorus?
A: Each 8-ounce serving of Calci Sodas contains 160 mg of phosphorus, which is 16 percent of your recommended daily allowance. Phosphorus is a mineral that is very difficult to get into your diet. Shrimp and red meat are some of the best sources for it. (And now add to that list Calci Sodas.)
The body requires phosphorus for proper bone and teeth formation and maintenance. Calcium alone can't build strong bones and tissues. New research shows calcium needs phosphorus to maximize its bone-strengthening benefits.
Q: What are the health benefits of malic acid?
A: Each serving of Calci Sodas also contains malic acid. Malic acid is a natural substance found in fruit and vegetables. One of the best sources for it is apples.
Malic acid possesses many health-related benefits. Some of these include increasing energy, boosting immunity, maintaining oral health, reducing the risk of poisoning from a build-up of toxic metals, and promoting smoother and firmer skin. It can also stimulate metabolism and increase energy production.
Q: Do Calci Sodas cause tooth enamel erosion?
A: According to the study conducted by the Indiana University School of Dentistry and published in the February 2008 issue of European Journal of Oral Science, Calci Sodas with calcium caused little to no enamel dental erosion or wear.
Q: Can I have too much calcium and other minerals in a day?
A: As always, it is best to consult your physician regarding the proper amount of calcium and other minerals you should consume daily.
