A 1990 study by Sheikh and Fordlran (Baylor University Medical Center) indicated that there arc important differences in the bioavailabilily of calcium from different calcium-containing compounds. The ability lo dissolve a preparation in dilute acid is a major factor that contributes to bioavailability. Currently, the FDA tFood and Drug Administration. U S.) does not require commercially available products to meet specific dissolution standards.
