FIEO
Calcium is one of the most essential minerals required by the human body, playing a vital role in maintaining strong bones and teeth, supporting muscle function, enabling nerve transmission, and assisting in hormonal balance. Despite its importance, calcium deficiency is a common concern across age groups, particularly in children, pregnant women, postmenopausal women, and the elderly.
CALCIUM supplements are widely used to address these deficiencies and support bone mineralization, especially when dietary intake is insufficient. At BluepillExpress, we offer comprehensive third-party manufacturing solutions for calcium-based supplements that are formulated to provide high bioavailability, superior absorption, and excellent tolerability.
As a WHO-GMP, FSSAI, and ISO-certified manufacturing company, BluepillExpress ensures premium quality calcium products that meet global standards and can be customized to meet your brand’s unique specifications and target demographic.
The Role of Calcium in Health
Calcium is fundamental to numerous physiological processes. While 99% of the body’s calcium is stored in the bones and teeth, the remaining 1% plays crucial roles in:
- Muscle contraction
- Blood clotting
- Enzyme function
- Transmission of nerve impulses
- Regulation of heartbeat
- Hormone secretion
Insufficient calcium intake can lead to long-term consequences such as:
- Osteoporosis
- Rickets in children
- Bone fractures
- Muscle cramps and spasms
- Fatigue and weakness
Regular calcium supplementation helps prevent these conditions and supports overall skeletal and muscular health.
Market Demand and Growth Potential
The global calcium supplement market is projected to exceed USD 10 billion by 2030, driven by factors such as:
- Increased prevalence of osteoporosis and bone fractures
- Awareness campaigns around bone health
- Rising aging population
- Higher demand for preventive healthcare
- Greater emphasis on women’s health and prenatal nutrition
Calcium supplements are popular across retail pharmacies, online platforms, sports nutrition markets, and clinical prescription channels.
