Lifestream Natural Calcium Powder, 100g

Product Information

Calcium powder is generally easier to use than liquid forms and ensures your pet is getting the nutrients they need. Importantly, any patients using calcium carbonate for any reason should never be prescribed ceftriaxone to prevent end-organ failure.

Calcium carbonate occurs as aragonite, calcite and dolomite as significant constituents of the calcium cycle.

Pure calcium carbonate (such as for food or pharmaceutical use), can be produced from a pure quarried source (usually marble).

As ambient CO 2 partial pressure increases to levels above atmospheric, pH drops, and much of the carbonate ion is converted to bicarbonate ion, which results in higher solubility of Ca 2+. It occurs naturally in the minerals aragonite, calcite, limestone and marble which makes up about 4% of the earths crust. Tortoises usually consume a lot of phosphorus in their diets, which interferes with calcium absorption.Signs of calcium carbonate have been detected at more than one location (notably at Gusev and Huygens craters). The temperature at which limestone yields calcium oxide is usually given as 825 °C, but stating an absolute threshold is misleading.

In the rest of the body, calcium supports heart function, circulation, nerve function and muscle tone. As ambient CO 2 partial pressure is reduced below atmospheric levels, the solution becomes more and more alkaline.Calcium is involved in numerous vital functions throughout the body, including bone building, blood clotting, energy production, nerve transmission and neuro-muscular activity. Usually good sources of minerals are obtained from natural plant and vegetable foods however calcium content is high in only a select number of foods. Swell Calcium Powder with Vitamin D3 can be used on vegetation or livefood in your reptile’s food bowl. Our 4-in-1 calcium supplement powder is specially fortified with pure calcium carbonate for easy digestion. Excessive calcium intake can lead to hypercalcemia, complications of which include vomiting, abdominal pain and altered mental status.
