Calcium Lactate and the Corn Free Diet

Calcium lactate is a white, crystalline salt made by the reaction of lactic acid with calcium carbonate or calcium hydroxide. It is commonly used in the food industry as a firming agent, leavening agent, or to fortify foods with calcium. It is water-soluble and does not impart any flavor to the food products.
