What is Calcium Gluconate?

Calcium gluconate is a mineral supplement and food additive that provides a source of calcium, essential for various bodily functions including bone health, muscle function, and nerve signaling. In food manufacturing, it is used to fortify products with calcium. While it is beneficial for those with calcium deficiencies, people following a corn-free diet should be cautious, as it can be derived from or processed with corn.

Why People Avoid Calcium Gluconate

Calcium gluconate may be derived from or processed using corn products, which poses a problem for individuals with corn allergies or those adhering to a strict corn-free diet. Since the source can vary, it is important for those avoiding corn to contact the manufacturer to verify the source of calcium gluconate before consumption.
