Pharmacological properties
Pharmacodynamics
Calcium chelate Evalar is part of the series of products of the first anti-aging line ANTI-AGE from the Evalar company and is a preparation containing the mineral in a special chelated form, which allows for maximum absorption of calcium and quick replenishment of its deficiency. Calcium plays an important role in the human body - it is necessary for the formation of the skeletal structure and construction of bones, muscle growth and the processes of their contractility, for normal innervation. Also, this macronutrient is indispensable for the functioning of the cardiovascular system, since it helps to reduce the level of cholesterol in the vessels and is involved in the control of blood pressure (BP).
Calcium deficiency can lead to increased excitability of the nervous system, the development of muscle cramps, insomnia, decreased bone density (the risk of osteoporosis is aggravated), increased nail fragility and deterioration of the teeth, and also provoke an increase in blood pressure. Since the macronutrient is rapidly excreted from the body, its level must be constantly replenished. The dietary supplement is an easily digestible chelate complex that provides an adequate supply of calcium and does not require additional intake of vitamin D for the last absorption.
The chelated form is a strong combination of a mineral ion and an amino acid. Outwardly, it is similar to the claw of a crab and, therefore, is called "chelate" (Latin "chele" - claw). This form promotes better assimilation of elements, since this process mainly takes place in the small intestine and is possible only in the case of the combination of individual ions of the mineral with amino acids. In the chelated form, calcium ions are immediately ready for absorption by the cells of the small intestine, since they initially reside in the amino acid membrane and do not require additional transformations. Currently, the chelated form of the mineral is considered to be maximally assimilable - by 90–98%. Thanks to the action of the drug, the lack of calcium in the body is replenished, the functional state of the heart muscle and blood vessels is improved, the health of bones and teeth is maintained.
Calcium chelate Evalar does not affect the level of acidity of gastric juice and does not cause digestive disorders. When using dietary supplements, insoluble precipitates are not deposited on the walls of blood vessels, which can provoke the development of calcification and cause fragility of blood vessels and joints. The drug can be used during pregnancy and lactation. The active substance is able to pass through the placenta barrier and nourish the developing fetus.
