Detailed explanation-1: -The Supplement Facts label on calcium supplements is helpful in determining how much calcium is in one serving. As an example, calcium carbonate is 40% elemental calcium, so 1, 250 milligrams (mg) of calcium carbonate contains 500 mg of elemental calcium.
Detailed explanation-2: -Over 99 percent of total body calcium is found in teeth and bones. The remainder is present in blood, extracellular fluid, muscle, and other tissues, where it plays a role in mediating vascular contraction and vasodilation, muscle contraction, nerve transmission, and glandular secretion.
Detailed explanation-3: -About 99% of the body’s calcium is stored in bones, and the remaining 1% is found in blood, muscle, and other tissues. In order to perform these vital daily functions, the body works to keep a steady amount of calcium in the blood and tissues.
