Calcium citrate, also known as calcium citrate or by the food additive code E333, is an organic salt formed by the reaction of citric acid with calcium. The substance is white to yellowish in colour, odourless, slightly acidic in taste and soluble in water. Calcium citrate is an important source of calcium, which is essential for the human body. Calcium supports bone and tooth formation, is essential for blood clotting and the transmission of nerve impulses, and is involved in many other functions in the body.
Calcium citrate is mainly used in the food industry as a stabilizer and acidity regulator. It is added to various types of foods - it is found in many beverages, baked products, ice cream, cheese, pasta, baby food, jams and other sweet foods. Calcium citrate is also popular as a dietary supplement for people who have a calcium deficiency in their body or who are at risk of osteoporosis. It appears on the market in various forms - as tablets, capsules or powder. Although calcium citrate is generally considered safe and is approved by the European Food Safety Authority, it is important to follow the recommended dosage when consuming it and take into account possible interactions with other drugs.
