3A Calcium by Lane Medical has been formulated to help the body provide superior calcium absorption.
3A Calcium (AAACa) is a patented, ionized calcium from Japan comprised of calcium oxide and calcium hydroxide. AAACa also is potentiated with HAI® (heated algal ingredient), a patented amino acid complex from super-heated hijiki seaweed. These two patented, natural ingredients are only available in 3A Calcium.
Backed by 20 years of clinical research and 30 published, scientific articles, 3A Calcium has shown consistent, significant increases in bone density and reduced fracture rates.
It is the #1 Bone-Building Calcium.
The body needs calcium to carry out many important functions. Such as helping:
- Maintain strong bones & teeth
- Muscles to move
- Nerves to carry messages between the brain and every body part
- Blood vessels move blood throughout the body
- Release hormones and enzymes that affect almost every function in the human body
Over 99% of the calcium in the human body is the bones and teeth. It is also found in the blood, muscles, and other tissue.
Calcium is stored in the bones as reserve & is released as needed into the body. Because it is released from the body through sweat, skin cells, and waste, the concentration of calcium in the body declines as we age. In addition, as women age, absorption of calcium tends to decline due to reduced estrogen levels. In addition, as women age, absorption of calcium tends to decline due to reduced estrogen levels.
Benefits of Calcium
Calcium is a valuable addition in the treatment of:
- Osteoporosis (weak bones due to low bone density) For more information see Dr. Slagle's newsletter "BONE HEALTH"
- Rickets (a condition in children involving softening of the bones)
- Osteomalacia (a softening of bones involving pain)
- Premenstrual syndrome (PMS)
- Leg cramps in pregnancy
- Acid/alkaline balance For more information see Dr. Slagle's newsletter "ARE YOU TOO ACID? BODY BALANCE OF ALKALINE & ACID"
- High blood pressure For more information see Dr. Slagle's newsletter "HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE ( HYPERTENSION)"
- Pre-eclampsia (high blood pressure in pregnancy)
- Intestinal bypass surgery
- High cholesterol
- Lyme disease
- High fluoride levels in children
- High lead levels.
What Are the Symptoms of Calcium Deficiency Disease (Hypocalcemia)?
Early-stage calcium deficiency may not cause any symptoms; however, as the condition progresses, symptoms will develop.
Severe symptoms of calcium deficiency disease include:
- Memory Loss
- Lethargy
- Poor appetite
- Muscle spasms
- Numbness and tingling in the hands, feet, and face
- Skeletal malformations
- Dermatitis
- Depression
- Hallucinations
People who typically struggle with getting enough calcium include:
- Postmenopausal women, because they experience greater bone loss and do not absorb calcium as well.
- Women of childbearing age whose menstrual periods stop because they exercise heavily, eat too little or both.
- People with lactose intolerance experience bloating, gas and diarrhea when they drink more than small amounts of milk at a time.
- Vegans and ovo-vegetarians avoid dairy products that are a major source of calcium.
Many other general factors can affect the amount of calcium absorbed from the digestive tract, including:
- Age - efficiency of calcium absorption decreases as people age, which is why recommended calcium intakes are higher for people over age 70.
- Low Vitamin D intake - To absorb enough calcium, your body also needs vitamin D.
- Components in food - such as oxalic acid in some vegetables and beans and phytic acid in whole grains can reduce calcium absorption.
- Factors that affect how much calcium the body eliminates - including alcohol and caffeine containing beverages as well as nutrients such as protein, sodium, potassium and phosphorus.
- Anyone with low stomach acid
- Those taking acid blockers
The amount of calcium you need each day depends on your age.
The upper limit (UL) of calcium according to the DRI recommendations varies by age and gender.
They are as follows:
- 0-6 months: 1,000 mg
- 6-12 months: 1,500 mg
- 1-3 years: 2,500 mg
- 4-8 years: 2,500 mg
- 9-13 years: 3,000 mg
- 14-18 years: 3,000 mg
- 19-30 years: 2,500 mg
- 31-50 years: 2,500 mg
- 51-70 years, female: 2,000 mg
- 51-70 years, male: 2,000 mg
- 70+ years: 2,0000 mg
- Pregnant or lactating women, 14-18 years: 3,000 mg
- Pregnant or lactating women, 19-50 years: 2,500 mg
Please note that as we cited above, it is nearly impossible to reach this amount of calcium without heavily leaning on supplements or fortified foods.
Things to remember
- The average adult's weight is made up of about two per cent calcium.
- Good sources of calcium include dairy foods like milk, yoghurt and cheese, calcium fortified foods (such as soy products) and, to a lesser degree, some leafy green vegetables.
- If you don't have enough calcium in your diet, you may be at increased risk of developing osteoporosis.
