Each capsule of Real Cal Glycinate provides 100 mg of bio-available calcium from 885 mg calcium bis-glycinate. Bio-availability of calcium bis-glycinate reigns supreme and is considered most bio-available form of calcium in the world today. Studies show an absorption rate significantly higher compared to cheaper and more common forms such as calcium carbonate or calcium citrate.
Calcium is a critical mineral for bone, teeth and nerve health, but only what is absorbed will benefit your body. Using glycinate chelated calcium like Real Cal Glycinate helps to ensure that the calcium you consume imparts its vitalising effect on your bones as well as muscular and nervous system.
Although calcium is the most abundant bodily mineral with 99% stored in our bones and teeth, it is in a constant state of resorption (bone breakdown) and deposition (bone formation). For this reason it’s critical to ensure the deposition of calcium into bone always equals or exceeds resorption because when calcium resorption outstrips bone formation, osteoporosis and weakening of the bones start. The other 1% of the body’s calcium store resides in the form of serum calcium (stored in bodily fluids and blood). Serum calcium levels rarely change and are maintained at very precise levels by feeding off stores of calcium held in bones. Serum calcium serves to fuel that regulate critical chemical reactions in the body.
Therefore, because calcium is considered a life long mineral, maintaining a constant calcium intake from youth through adulthood is massively beneficial for our bodies.

Why Glycinates
- Calcium Glycinate chelate is the most easily absorbed and bio-available form of Calcium.
- Calcium Glycinate chelates “combine” the amino acid glycine with calcium, which results is a form of calcium that is readily digested and absorbed via similar pathways to amino acids in the stomach. As a result calcium glycinate as used in Real Cal Glycinate vegetarian capsules offer far better absorption than calcium carbonate or calcium citrate which is commonly used in calcium supplements.
- Glycinate, unlike other calcium forms does not neutralise stomach acids and disrupt critical pH levels in gut, so doing can cause imbalances in healthy micro flora that live in the G.I. tract (gastro-intestinal tract).
