Our bodies require calcium in order to perform multiple physiologic tasks. While most people are aware of the need for calcium in building and maintaining strong bones and teeth, many remain unaware of the important role calcium plays in nerve transmission, muscle contraction, blood coagulation, cardiac function, and cellular structure. Unfortunately, a great percentage of the population fails to acquire adequate amounts of calcium from their diet—whether from choosing foods with little or low calcium content, from combining foods that compromise absorption, or from health conditions that prevent proper absorption. In addition, there are times in our lives when we need even more calcium. Female athletes and older women, for example, require greater amounts of calcium than other women.
Getting enough calcium into the body is only half the battle. The more soluble the calcium, the better it is absorbed. And optimal calcium metabolism also relies on vitamin D, calcitonin, and parathyroid hormone. Calcifood Powder provides a whole food source of calcium, along with its complementary and synergistic nutrients, formulated to naturally enhance calcium metabolism and absorption.
- Provides 400 mg more calcium per serving than Calcifood supplement wafers
- Helps the body build strong, healthy bones
- Can be mixed in a supplement shake or added to foods
- Adequate calcium as part of a healthful diet, along with physical activity, may reduce the risk of osteoporosis in later life.

Dairy
by Gina
It messes with my sinuses. I don't believe that the dairy in it was just due to cross contamination. Dairy is one of the ingredients which wasnt disclosed. I even asked my family members to try it and they all said that it tasted like milk.

Joint pain much less
by OA K.
I'm noticing a real benefit from Calcifood Powder. My osteoarthritis knee pain is reduced a lot. The relief is only temporary but I've only been taking it 3 weeks. I'd been told to expect 6 months before greater benefits. Tastes better than the calcifood wafers too, I think.
