Calcium Lactate/Protease/Amylase/Lipase-containing Supplement

**Semantic type:** Pharmacologic Substance

**Definition:** A dietary supplement containing calcium lactate, protease, amylase and lipase, that may be used as a calcium supplement and for the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis, and to decrease inflammation and improve tissue repair. Upon administration of calcium lactate/protease/amylase/lipase-containing supplement, the enzymes catalyze the breakdown of fats, carbohydrates and proteins during the digestion of food. This increases the absorption of amino acids, which may decrease inflammation and improve tissue repair. Calcium lactate helps maintain calcium balance and prevent bone loss. Calcium is a major component of bone and teeth that confers bone strength and structure, and plays an important role in many physiologic functions including nerve, muscle and cardiac functions.
