Abstract
A vitamin and mineral supplement containing ULTRADENSE.TM. calcium citrate and carbonyl iron for use in humans. Calcium in the form of citrate enhances absorption of iron, zinc, and magnesium. ULTRADENSE.TM. calcium citrate provides more bioavailable calcium than usual preparations of calcium citrate. Carbonyl iron provides iron in a form that significantly reduces the risk to children of accidental iron poisoning from formulations that provide iron in salt form. The supplement may further contain a number of vitamins and minerals in a tablet that is elegantly small, weighing about 1.5-1.6 g. The small size allows ease of swallowing and encourages patient acceptability. Methods of making such a supplement and methods of treating maladies in need of vitamin and mineral supplementation are provided.
