What it is

Calcium from marine algae is a source of calcium derived from certain types of seaweed. The algae are processed to extract and concentrate the calcium, often resulting in a powder.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add calcium from marine algae to fortify foods and beverages with calcium. It is commonly found in dairy alternatives, powdered drink mixes, and some baked goods.

Health notes

In the US, calcium from marine algae is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as intended. It provides a plant-based source of calcium, important for bone health. International bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated calcium compounds, and they are generally considered safe. Evidence does not suggest adverse effects at typical dietary intakes.

Allergen info

Not a major allergen. It is derived from algae, not one of the nine FDA major allergens. It is also gluten-free.
