Calcium ascorbate is a form of vitamin C that is buffered with calcium. This means that it is less acidic than other forms of vitamin C, such as ascorbic acid, and is therefore gentler on the stomach. Calcium ascorbate is also more stable than other forms of vitamin C, so it is less likely to break down during digestion. Calcium ascorbate is a good source of both calcium and vitamin C. Calcium is important for strong bones and teeth, and vitamin C is important for a healthy immune system, wound healing, and the production of collagen. In addition to its nutritional benefits, calcium ascorbate may also have some other health benefits. For example, some studies have shown that calcium ascorbate may help to reduce the risk of heart disease, stroke, and cancer. It may also help to improve blood pressure, blood sugar control, and cognitive function. However, more research is needed to confirm these potential benefits. Overall, calcium ascorbate is a safe and effective way to get your daily dose of calcium and vitamin C. It is a good choice for people who are looking for a gentler form of vitamin C or who want to get the added benefit of calcium. Here are some of the specific benefits of calcium ascorbate: Improves immune function: Vitamin C is an antioxidant that helps to protect cells from damage. It is also essential for the production of white blood cells, which are part of the body's immune system. Calcium ascorbate can help to boost the immune system and fight off infection. Promotes wound healing: Vitamin C is needed for the production of collagen, which is a protein that helps to heal wounds. Calcium ascorbate can help to speed up the healing process of cuts, scrapes, and burns. Maintains bone health: Calcium is essential for strong bones and teeth. Calcium ascorbate can help to prevent osteoporosis, a condition that causes bones to become weak and brittle. Reduces the risk of heart disease: Vitamin C has been shown to lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of heart disease. Calcium ascorbate may also have these benefits. Lowers blood pressure: Vitamin C has been shown to lower blood pressure in people with hypertension. Calcium ascorbate may also have this benefit. Improves blood sugar control: Vitamin C may help to improve blood sugar control in people with diabetes. Calcium ascorbate may also have this benefit. Protects against cancer: Some studies have shown that vitamin C may help to protect against certain types of cancer, such as lung cancer and colon cancer. Calcium ascorbate may also have these benefits. If you are considering taking calcium ascorbate, talk to your doctor first. They can help you determine if it is right for you and recommend the best dosage.

Fenugreek is one of the oldest plants used in traditional medicine. It has been used for a long time due to its beneficial properties in the treatment of wounds, abscesses, arthritis, bronchitis, and digestive disorders [1]. The seeds are the most important and useful part of the fenugreek plant [1]. Many of the functional and medicinal properties of fenugreek are attributed to its chemical composition (20–25% protein, 45–50% dietary fiber, 20–25% mucilaginous soluble fiber, 6–8% fatty acids and essential oils, and 2–5% steroidal saponins) [2].   References 1. Meghwal M., Goswami T.K.
