Calcium citrate malate and other nutrients like vitamin D3, magnesium, zinc, copper, and fructooligosaccharides are essential during pregnancy and fetal development. A clinical study was conducted to evaluate the usefulness of these supplements. The study found that calcium citrate malate is well-absorbed and essential for bone health, muscle function, and other bodily processes. Supplementation with these nutrients in pregnancy has the potential to reduce complications like preeclampsia and preterm birth. The study concluded that calcium citrate malate and other nutrients are essential for cell growth, DNA production and function, and can improve mineral density and support healthy pregnancy and fetal development.
Calcium citrate malate is most easily absorbed by the body. Calcium is essential for many diverse processes in the body, including bone formation, muscle contraction, and enzyme and hormone functioning. Calcium is very essential in muscle contraction, oocyte activation, building strong bones and teeth, blood clotting, nerve impulse, transmission, regulating heart beat and fluid balance within cells. Calcium supplementation in pregnancy has the potential to reduce adverse gestational outcomes, in particular by decreasing the risk of developing hypertensive disorders during pregnancy, which are associated with a significant number of maternal deaths and considerable risk of preterm birth, the leading cause of early. Calcium citrate maleate and other nutrients are essential for cell growth and the production and functioning of DNA – the body's genetic blueprint. Based on clinical evidences Calsiara™ is essential for Pregnancy Mother and Fetal development. Along with to improve the mineral density of bone.
Calcium is essential for building strong bones and maintaining bone density as we age. Our bones absorb most calcium during childhood and adolescence, so it is important to consume adequate calcium from foods like dairy, soy, leafy greens and fortified foods starting at a young age. Not getting enough calcium can lead to osteoporosis, a disease where bones become brittle and prone to breaking. In addition to calcium, vitamin D is needed to help the body absorb calcium from foods.

Osteoporosis is a skeletal disorder characterized by low bone density and quality, increasing the risk of fractures. It affects over 10 million Americans, with women at higher risk than men. Risk factors include age, weight, family history, smoking, chronic inflammation, and use of corticosteroids. Treatment options include medications like bisphosphonates, calcium and vitamin D supplements, exercise, and nutrition to build strong bones and prevent osteoporosis and fractures. Maintaining bone health, especially in younger years, is important to reduce osteoporosis risk later in life.
Better to have fruits and vegetables in your diet cause you’ll lose weight, get rid of food cravings, clear up skin issues, think clearer, and even be able to overcome food addictions. More importantly, you can literally make yourself heart attack-proof if you follow a mostly plant-based diet.
Bone disease can cause pain, deformity, and mobility issues if left untreated. It is often called a "silent" condition since many people are unaware they have it until suffering a fracture. Calcium and vitamin D are essential for building and maintaining strong bones. Good sources of calcium include dairy products, dark leafy greens, fish, nuts, beans, and fortified foods. Adults need 1000-1200 mg of calcium and 600-800 IU of vitamin D daily depending on age and gender. While foods should be the primary source, supplements may be needed to meet calcium requirements with a doctor's approval.

New One-Pot Synthetic Route and Spectroscopic Characterization of Hydroxo-Bri...AJASTJournal
A new convenient and efficient route for the synthesis of two very important hydroxo-bridged stepped-cubane copper complexes viz: [Cu4(bpy)4Cl2(OH)4]Cl2.6H2O (1) and [Cu4(phen)4Cl2(OH)4]Cl2.6H2O (2) have been obtained. This synthetic route from the mononuclear CubpyCl2 complex is easier, more reproducible and afforded the complex in a much higher yield than the other two previously reported procedures which were equally serendipitously discovered. The purity and formation of the complexes were confirmed with elemental (C,H,N) analysis and the details of the UV-Vis, Fourier transform infrared, electrospray ionization mass spectra of both complexes and the single crystal X-ray crystallography of 1 are presented and discussed. X-ray crystallography confirms the absolute structure of the complexes. The complexes were formed via the connection of four copper atoms to four hydroxide bridging ligands and four bipyridyl ligands with two chloride ligands. There are two coordinate environments around two pairs of copper atoms (CuN2ClO2 and CuN2O3) and each copper atom is pentacoordinate with square pyramidal geometry.

choice. If you’re lactose intolerant, don’t eat animal products, or you just don’t like milk, you can still get enough
calcium without dairy.
Calcium is essential for many diverse processes in the body, including bone formation, muscle contraction, and
enzyme and hormone functioning. Inadequate calcium consumption by pregnant women can lead to adverse effects
in both the mother and the fetus and produce:
Osteopenia
Tremor
Paraesthesia
Muscle cramping
Tetanus
Delayed fetal growth
Low birth weight
Poor fetal mineralization
Calcium supplementation has shown to produce a beneficial effect in reducing the risk of pregnancy-induced
hypertension. Calcium in supplements may come in the form of carbonate, citrate, lactate or gluconate, and in
general has good bioavailability. Supplements are inexpensive and readily accessible. Calcium supplementation in
pregnancy has the potential to reduce adverse gestational outcomes, in particular by decreasing the risk of

developing hypertensive disorders during pregnancy, which are associated with a significant number of maternal
deaths and considerable risk of preterm birth, the leading cause of early.
Calcium citrate malate is one of the key minerals you need during pregnancy along with other vitamins and
minerals, your body provides it to your baby to aid the development of vital structures like the skeleton. Calcium is
a mineral that is found naturally in foods. Calcium is necessary for many normal functions of the body, especially
bone formation and maintenance. Calcium citrate is used to prevent and to treat calcium deficiencies.
Daily Requirements
Teen moms require a little more. They need enough to maintain their bones and the stores of calcium in their own
bodies while supporting the growth of their baby. Therefore, experts recommend that pregnant teens aged 18 and
under get at least 1,300mg of calcium each day.
For Your Baby
Your developing baby needs calcium to form bones and teeth. They're building an entire skeleton, after all. Calcium
is also an important nutrient for your baby's heart, muscles, nerves, and hormones.
For You
During pregnancy, you give your baby all the calcium they need, so when you consume the recommended amount
of calcium every day you are taking care of your baby and yourself. If you don't get enough, you could run into
some complications. Regardless of whether or not you take in enough, your body will still give calcium to your
baby. So, if you are not replacing what you're giving away, you could end up with weakened bones and a greater
risk of osteoporosis later in life.
Complications
Not consuming enough calcium can lead to:
High blood pressure during pregnancy
Premature birth
Low birth weight
Numbness and tingling in the fingers
Slow growth of the baby
The baby not getting enough calcium in the bones
Heart problems
Muscle and leg cramps
A poor appetite
In rare cases, increased risk of bone fractures.

Make sure the dairy products you eat are pasteurized and talk to your doctor about the type of milk and dairy
products that are best. Low-fat and non-fat milk contains all the calcium and nutrients of whole milk without the
extra fat and calories. However, your doctor will advise you on the best choice based on whether you are
underweight, within the recommended weight range, or overweight. Your doctor may recommend a calcium citrate
supplement if you are having trouble getting enough calcium or you are at risk for high blood pressure in
pregnancy.
Vitamin D3
Vitamin D3 is known to play an important role in bone metabolism through regulation of calcium and phosphate
equilibrium. Insufficient vitamin D3 linked to miscarriage among women with prior pregnancy loss. NIH study
suggests the importance of preconception vitamin D in maintaining pregnancy. Vitamin D supplementation during
pregnancy improves maternal vitamin D status and may reduce the risk of pre-eclampsia, low birthweight and
preterm birth. A deficiency in vitamin D can result from inadequate exposure to sunlight, inefficient production in
the skin, not enough vitamin D in your diet, and health conditions that can affect Pregnancy including,
gastrointestinal disorders, renal diseases, and liver diseases.
To get the vitamin D you need each day, you can:
Spend a little time in the sun. Sunlight converts a chemical in your skin to vitamin D.

Consume fortified products. Many calcium-rich foods are also fortified with vitamin D such as milk,
orange juice, cereal, yogurt, and eggs.
Take your prenatal vitamin. Most prenatal vitamins contain vitamin D. But, be sure to read
Fructooligosaccharides
Fructooligosaccharides (FOS) are oligosaccharides that occur naturally in plants such as onion, chicory, garlic,
asparagus, banana, artichoke, among many others. They are composed of linear chains of fructose units, linked by
beta (2-1) bonds. Fructooligosaccharides (FOS), which are low-calorie, non-digestible carbohydrates that can
improve food taste and texture while aiding immunity, bone health and the growth and balance of important
bacteria in the digestive track. Human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) circulate during early pregnancy in the
maternal blood. We show that mothers produce HMOs starting as early as 10 weeks of gestation and thus, months
before the baby is born. This suggests that babies might already benefit from HMOs before they take their first sip
of mother’s milk. Whether HMOs protect the unborn indirectly, e.g. by protecting the mother from infections or
facilitating immune and metabolic adaptations during pregnancy, or whether HMOs have direct benefits on the
unborn, remains to be elucidated. Our studies show that HMOs profiles change over the course of pregnancy in
concentration and composition. Human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) are bioactive glycans linked with health
benefits to both the breast-fed infant and lactating mother. HMOs are present before lactation, already during
pregnancy, and are influenced by maternal body composition. HMO concentration increased with gestational age.
Human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) are highly abundant, bioactive glycans in human milk that offer a variety of
potential benefits to the breast-fed infant (3). The best studied HMO effects are their topical effects in the infant gut,
such as prebiotic effects on beneficial bacteria and antiadhesive/antimicrobial functions against pathogens.
Magnesium
Magnesium (Mg) is an essential mineral required to regulate body temperature, nucleic acid, and protein synthesis
with an important role in maintaining nerve and muscle cell electrical potentials. It may reduce fetal growth
restriction and preeclampsia as well as increase birth weight. Deficiency in this mineral during pregnancy may
increase the risk of chronic hypertension and premature labor. Some studies suggest that supplementing with
magnesium may reduce the risk of complications like fetal growth restriction and preterm birth. Magnesium and
calcium work in combination: Magnesium relaxes muscles, while calcium stimulates muscles to contract. Research
suggests that getting adequate magnesium during pregnancy can help prevent the uterus from contracting
prematurely. Magnesium also helps build strong teeth and bones in your baby. Low magnesium is associated with
increased risk of miscarriage. Low magnesium may also be associated with birth defects. Multivitamins: lowered
the risk of miscarriage by 57% in one study.
Zinc
Your baby needs zinc for cell growth and for the production and functioning of DNA – the body's genetic blueprint.
Getting enough zinc is especially important during pregnancy because there's so much rapid cell growth. This

essential mineral also helps support your immune system, maintain your senses of taste and smell, and heal
wounds. Zinc deficiency to low birth weight and other problems during pregnancy, labor, and delivery.
Manganese
Manganese is a mineral that helps form bone and cartilage. It also helps protect cells from damage and activates the
enzymes that play a role in the metabolism of carbohydrates, amino acids, and cholesterol.
Copper
Copper, a trace mineral found in all plant and animal tissues, is essential for forming red blood cells. This is
especially important during pregnancy, when your blood supply doubles. Copper helps form your baby's heart,
blood vessels, and skeletal and nervous systems. Drinking 2 to 3 glasses of water that has been stored in a copper
vessel is another easy way to supply your body with enough copper. According to Ayurveda, drinking
copper-enriched water first thing in the morning on an empty stomach helps balance all three doshas (Kapha, Vata
and Pitta).
Literature Review
Ambrish Mithal, et al, (2014): Vitamin D deficiency and insufficiency are common across the globe. Large
epidemiological studies reveal the high prevalence of vitamin D in women, including antenatal and lactating
mothers. Vitamin D requirements are probably greater in pregnancy, as evidenced by physiologically higher
1,25-dehydroxy vitamin D levels seen in the second and third trimesters. While 1,25(OH) 2D levels do not correlate
directly with 25 hydroxy vitamin D concentrations, the physiological rise in the active metabolite, the enhanced
intestinal calcium absorption, and enhanced fetal requirement of calcium (250 mg/day in the third trimester) all
point to the importance of vitamin D biology in pregnancy. The musculoskeletal manifestations of vitamin D
deficiency are well known: Rickets and osteomalacia have been linked with the condition for nearly a century now.
Myriad metabolic, nonskeletal associations of vitamin D deficiency are now being unraveled as well. Various
authors report links between low vitamin D levels and various elements of the metabolic syndrome. Yet others
describe the immunomodulatory, anabolic, anti-infective and anti-tumoral potential of vitamin D. Maternal
secondary hyperparathyroidism and osteomalacia, neonatal hypocalcemia and tetany, delayed ossification of the
cranial vertex, enlarged size of cranial, fontanelles, and impaired fetal bone ossification has been reported by
various authors, and reviewed in detail by others. The relationship between low vitamin D and adverse maternal
outcomes such as pregnancy induced hypertension high blood pressure in diabetic pregnancy gestational diabetes
mellitus recurrent pregnancy loss preterm delivery primary Caesarian section, and postpartum depression has been
documented in recent years.
Sahu M, et al, (2009): Vitamin D deficiency is common in urban Indians despite living in the tropics and its public
health consequences are enormous. However, 70% of India is rural, and data from rural subjects, who are expected
to have good sun exposure, are scant. To determine the population prevalence of vitamin D deficiency in rural
pregnant women and adolescent girls, compare serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD) status in adolescent boys
from the same families, and determine seasonal differences in serum 25OHD. A random selection of 121

women in the second trimester; and a subset of 28 adolescent girls compared with 34 brothers. Serum 25OHD,
serum alkaline phosphatase (AP), sun exposure, and dietary calcium intake. The age-adjusted community
prevalence of vitamin D deficiency (25OHD < 50 nmol/l) in adolescent girls was 88.6%. Seventy-four per cent of
pregnant women had vitamin D deficiency. Mean +/- SD 25OHD in girls and women in summer was 55.5 +/- 19.8
nmol/l compared to 27.3 +/- 12.3 nmol/l in winter (P < 0.001). Winter serum 25OHD in boys (67.5 +/- 29.0 nmol/l)
was higher than that in their sisters (31.3 +/- 13.5 nmol/l, P < 0.001). We report a high prevalence of vitamin D
deficiency among pregnant women and adolescent girls from a rural Indian community. Boys are relatively
protected. Seasonal variation in serum 25OHD is significant at latitude 26 degrees N.
Benjamin W, et al, (2012): Poor maternal zinc status has been associated with foetal loss, congenital
malformations, intrauterine growth retardation, reduced birth weight, prolonged labor and preterm or post-term
deliveries. A meta-analysis completed in 2007 showed that maternal zinc supplementation resulted in a small but
significant reduction in preterm birth. The purposes of this analysis are to update that previous review and expand
the scope of assessment to include maternal, infant and child health outcomes. Electronic searches were carried out
to identify peer-reviewed, randomized controlled trials where daily zinc supplementation was given for at least one
trimester of pregnancy. The co-authors applied the study selection criteria, assessed trial quality and abstracted
data. A total of 20 independent intervention trials involving more than 11 000 births were identified. The 20 trials
took place across five continents between 1977 and 2008. Most studies assessed the zinc effect against a
background of other micronutrient supplements, but five were placebo-controlled trials of zinc alone. The provided
dose of supplemental zinc ranged from 5 to 50 mg/day. Only the risk of preterm birth reached statistical
significance (summary relative risk 0.86 [95% confidence interval 0.75, 0.99]). There was no evidence that
supplemental zinc affected any parameter of fetal growth (risk of low birth weight, birth weight, length at birth or
head circumference at birth). Six of the 20 trials were graded as high quality. The evidence that maternal zinc
supplementation lowers the risk of preterm birth was graded low; evidence for a positive effect on other fetal
outcomes was graded as very low. The effect of zinc supplementation on preterm birth, if causal, might reflect a
reduction in maternal infection, a primary cause of prematurity. While further study would be needed to explore
this possibility in detail, the overall public health benefit of zinc supplementation in pregnancy appears limited.
Conclusion
We conclude that the best way to be sure that you’re getting all the calcium and other nutrients that you need is to
eat well. A balanced diet will keep you healthy during your pregnancy, provide your baby with what they need to
grow and develop, give you strength and energy for childbirth, and encourage successful milk production once your
child is born. Vitamin D3 supplementation during pregnancy improves maternal vitamin D3 status and may reduce
the risk of pre-eclampsia, low birthweight and preterm birth. Human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) are bioactive
glycans linked with health benefits to both the breast-fed infant and lactating mother.
So Calsiara ™ is recommended for essential nutrient for pregnant mother and fetal development. Along with to
improve the mineral density of bone.
