Calcium Ascorbate Powder Usage and Synthesis.

Vitamin C Calcium combines the same pharmacological effects of vitamin C and calcium, and can be used for the treatment of vitamin C and preventive treatment of calcium deficiency, and vitamin C made into calcium salts are more easily absorbed by the body, and the stability is enhanced.

In foreign countries, calcium vitamin C has been widely used in medicine and food industry. In the food industry, Calcium Vitamin C can be used as antioxidant, fortifier and additive of food.

Uses of Calcium Ascorbate.

As an antioxidant, China's regulations can be used in meat products and soups, the maximum use level of 1.0g/kg (in terms of ascorbic acid in fats and oils); used in instant noodles and pastries, the maximum use level of 0.2g/kg; can also be used as nutrient enhancers.

Application Areas

• Diverse application areas drive demand: Calcium ascorbate's applications extend far beyond dietary supplements.
• **Food Supplements and Health Products:** This is its largest application area, used in the production of mild vitamin C tablets, calcium + C complex supplements, and immune support products.
• **Functional Foods and Beverages:** Used as a nutritional fortifier in fruit juices, sports drinks, dairy products, and various health foods.
• **Pharmaceuticals and Cosmetics:** Used as an excipient or active ingredient in pharmaceutical-grade products; in cosmetics, it is used as an antioxidant and skin conditioning agent in high-end skincare formulations.
• **Food Preservation:** Due to its antioxidant properties, it can be used as a natural preservative in fresh-cut fruits, vegetables, and meat products, effectively preventing browning and protein deterioration, and extending shelf life.

Pharmacological action of Calcium Ascorbate.

Calcium vitamin C is involved in amino acid metabolism, synthesis of neurotransmitters, collagen and interstitial tissues. Supplementation with appropriate amounts of calcium vitamin C promotes nutrient metabolism and energy production in the body, enhances immune function, improves vascular adaptability, improves the elasticity and tone of the skin, blood vessels, and other tissues, and improves the body's ability to respond to stress (e.g., infections, etc.).

In the body, ascorbic acid and dehydroascorbic acid form a reversible redox system which plays an important role in biological oxidation and reduction processes and cellular respiration.

Product Method of Bulk Calcium Ascorbate Powder.

With vitamin C and calcium carbonate as raw materials, the reaction is carried out without adding nitrogen: 44gVC and a certain amount of water are added to a three-necked bottle equipped with an electric stirrer, the reaction temperature is controlled with a water bath, and a certain amount of calcium carbonate is added slowly under uniform stirring to keep the liquid surface covered with CO2.

After the reaction is complete, the filtrate is transferred to a three-necked bottle, a large amount of methanol is added at room temperature, and the crystals are slowly alcohol precipitated, the temperature is continuously lowered after the addition, the filtration is carried out, washed with methanol, and dried in vacuum, and the finished product of calcium vitamin C is obtained. The optimal process conditions are: water addition 1mL/g, reaction temperature 50℃, reaction time 100min, feeding volume ratio VC:CaCO3=1:0.525.The average content of vitamin C calcium generated under these reaction conditions is 99.35%, and the yield reaches 86.91%.

FAQ

Q: Is calcium ascorbate really better absorbed than regular vitamin C?

A: Current research suggests that calcium ascorbate, particularly its complex form bound to specific metabolites such as L-threonate, may be more effective in increasing intracellular vitamin C concentrations in white blood cells, which is especially important for long-term immune support. Its plasma concentration may be comparable to or better than regular vitamin C, but its core advantage lies in its targeted delivery and retention capabilities.

Q: Is it safe to take calcium ascorbate supplements? Are there any side effects?

A: It is safe to use at recommended doses. Calcium ascorbate has been classified as GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) by the US FDA, and multiple studies have not found any additional safety issues compared to placebo or regular ascorbic acid. Due to its mild properties, it carries a significantly lower risk of causing gastrointestinal upset than pure ascorbic acid. Of course, no supplement should be taken in excess.

Q: Is calcium ascorbate the same as "Ester C"?

A: Not exactly the same. Calcium ascorbate is a basic compound. Ester C® is typically a proprietary brand formulation whose main ingredient is calcium ascorbate, with small amounts of natural vitamin C metabolites, such as L-threonate calcium. These metabolites are believed to help improve the bioavailability and retention time of vitamin C in the body.

Q: What are the advantages for food manufacturers using calcium ascorbate in fruit and vegetable preservation?

A: As an antioxidant and preservative, calcium ascorbate effectively inhibits enzymatic browning in fresh-cut fruits and vegetables, maintaining color and freshness. It is highly safe, easy to use (dissolves in water to make a soaking solution), does not introduce a strong acidic taste, does not affect the original flavor of food, and aligns with the clean label trend.
