Calcium
Calcium is essential for strong bones, nerve function, and muscular balance. Its absorption depends heavily on vitamin D, as well as digestive health and proper enzyme activity such as alkaline phosphatase. When digestion is impaired, the body may have difficulty accessing and using calcium efficiently.
Healthy stomach acidity and a strong intestinal lining also support calcium utilization. Digestive disruptions—especially chronic ones—may interfere with how well calcium is absorbed, making overall digestive wellness important for maintaining mineral balance.
