Abstract
Calcium is a necessary vitamin for human health. It helps the body create strong bones and teeth. It is required for the correct functioning of heart and other muscles. Calcium shortage, known as hypocalcemia, is a disorder in which a person's blood calcium levels are abnormally low. Women must begin to increase their calcium consumption earlier in life than males. As a woman approaches menopause, it is especially vital to meet her calcium requirements. Calcium homeostasis is important for supporting human life functions like skeleton maintenance, hormone secretion regulation, nerve impulse transmission and vascular activity. Herbs with a high calcium content may aid in maintenance of calcium levels in the body. Though various supplements are available to address calcium shortage, herbal formulations are recommended since they have fewer side effects and are less expensive. This research focuses on the use of herbal plants to treat hypocalcemia. This study aimed to produce and test herbal candies that contained these herbs and used as natural excipients. Drumstick (Moringa oleifera), shingada (Trapa natans), hadjod (Cissus quadrangularis) and finger millet (Eleusine coracana) are among the ingredients in the formulation that will help with hypocalcemia. Organoleptic and other screening test are used to evaluate formulation. Calcium content was determined by the EDTA method and Atomic absorption spectroscopy.
