    Glossary Calcium

    vital mineral essential for bones, teeth, and muscle function

    Calcium is a vital mineral found in many foods and is essential for various bodily functions, including building and maintaining strong bones and teeth. It also plays a crucial role in muscle contraction, blood clotting, and nerve signal transmission. For professionals, it's important to note that calcium homeostasis is tightly regulated by hormones such as parathyroid hormone (PTH) and vitamin D, which ensure proper absorption and utilization in the body.
