摘要:
A method for supplementing dietary potassium, magnesium and citrate is disclosed that comprises orally administering an effective amount of potassium magnesium citrate in a single salt. Methods for decreasing urinary calcium and oxalate by the administration of potassium magnesium citrate in a single salt are also disclosed.
摘要:
A vitamin and mineral supplement containing ULTRADENSE™ calcium citrate and carbonyl iron for use in humans. Calcium in the form of citrate enhances absorption of iron, zinc, and magnesium. ULTRADENSE™ calcium citrate provides more bioavailable calcium than usual preparations of calcium citrate. Carbonyl iron provides iron in a form that significantly reduces the risk to children of accidental iron poisoning from formulations that provide iron in salt form. The supplement may further contain a number of vitamins and minerals in a tablet that is elegantly small, weighing about 1.5-1.6 g. The small size allows ease of swallowing and encourages patient acceptability. Methods of making such a supplement and methods of treating maladies in need of vitamin and mineral supplementation are provided.
摘要:
Methods of controlling calcium intake and phosphate metabolism and metabolic acidosis in patients suffering from renal failure and associated hyperphosphatemia or patients predisposed to development of a hyperphosphatemic condition are provided. The method in accordance with this invention comprises administering to a patient a calcium glutarate compound. Therapeutic benefit can be realized in accordance with such method by administering the compound orally to a patient to increase available calcium and contact and bind with ingested phosphate in the patient's digestive tract, and thereby prevent its intestinal absorption.

摘要:
One aspect of the present invention includes the novel compound having the formula:Ca.sub.2 (OOC--CH.sub.2 --COHCOO-CH.sub.2 COO)(CH.sub.3 CHOH-COO)In another aspect of the present invention, a method is provided for the treatment of a calcium related pathology. The inventive method includes the steps of providing a pharmaceutically acceptable composition, including as the active principle the compound dicalcium citrate-lactate, and administering to an individual in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of said pharmaceutically acceptable composition.In yet another aspect of the present invention, a process is provided for producing the compound dicalcium citrate-lactate. The inventive process comprising the steps of: (a) admixing stoichiometric quantities of citric acid and a calcium compound selected from the group consisting of calcium carbonate, calcium oxide and calcium hydroxide; (b) initiating a reaction by admixing stoichiometric quantities of lactic acid and water with said citric acid and calcium compound of step (a); (c) mixing the reactance of step (b) to produce a dense, hydrated mixture comprising calcium ions, citrate ions and lactate ions in a ratio of about 2:1:1; and (d) dehyrating the dense, hydrated mixture of step (c).
摘要:
A calcium citrate composition having a bulk density greater than about 1.1 g/cc. Citric acid and a calcium compound are mixed to produce a mixture having a calcium compound/citric acid molar ratio of about 1.5. A hydrated mixture percent is produced by agitatively adding water to the mixture, although when desired the calcium compound, citric acid and water mayBACKGROUND OF THE INVENTIONA portion of the development of the present invention was supported by Grant No. P01-AM 20543 from the United States Government, National Institutes of Health.
摘要:
A composition useful as a dietary supplement for providing potassium, calcium, and citrate is presented, as well as processes for producing the composition, and methods for using the composition as a dietary supplement. Administration of the composition counters bone loss associated with aging or menopause by providing bioavailable calcium and, simultaneously, delivering alkali load. In addition, administration of the composition produces a substantial increase in urinary citrate, which counters kidney-stone formation.
摘要:
A dual mineral salt consisting essentially of magnesium, potassium and citrate. A method for manufacturing the subject salt in a form having a bulk density ranging from about 1.0 g/cc to about 1.3 g/cc is also disclosed, and the use of the subject salt as a dietary supplement are also disclosed.
