Calcium phosphate

Calcium phosphate is a food ingredient that provides an important source of calcium and phosphorus, vital minerals for our bodies. It is commonly sourced from both plants and minerals, ensuring its availability in various foods. You can find calcium phosphate listed on the ingredients of many food products, especially those aiming to boost their calcium content.

This ingredient is typically produced by combining calcium sourced from rocks or other natural minerals with phosphoric acid. This process results in a fine powder that can be easily added to food products during manufacturing. The combination of calcium and phosphorus in calcium phosphate serves to fortify the nutritional value of foods, making them richer in these essential minerals.

Food labels often include calcium phosphate due to its role in enhancing the nutritional profile of products. It's commonly found in items like baked goods, dairy products, and cereals, where it helps support bone health and overall wellbeing. By incorporating calcium phosphate, food manufacturers can offer consumers a more nutrient-rich option in their daily diet.
