Momcal is an excellent source of Calcium and Vitamin D which maintain and support maternal health. Calcium supports healthy pregnancy and Vitamin D enhances/promotes healthy foetal development.

CALCIUM is the fifth most abundant element in the body. Calcium is an important structural component of bone and teeth and is also necessary for the normal function of all muscles (skeletal, heart, and smooth muscles) and nerves, as well as for normal clotting of blood. Prolonged, inadequate intake of calcium can lead to weak bones (osteoporosis). Daily supplements of calcium and Vitamin D3 reduce the risk of fractures in women and men of all ages, even if they have suffered previous fractures. Calcium and Vitamin D3 given together reduce the risk of hip fractures, total fractures and possibly vertebral fractures. The body’s requirement for calcium increases with increasing age.

VITAMIN D3 is the most important nutrient, which enhances calcium’s ability to build and maintain bones. The mechanisms by which Vitamin D3 maintains normal calcium levels are:

• Vitamin D3 facilitates calcium absorption by the small intestine.
• Vitamin D3 interacts with Parathyroid Hormone (PTH) to enhance calcium mobilization from bone and decreases calcium excretion by the kidney.
