Abstract

Minerals are required for many purposes like forming the frame and rigid structure of the body. Calcium is one of the macro mineral most abundantly found in the human body. Most of the calcium in the body is present in the bones and teeth; only a small amount (1%) is present in blood/body fluids. It is present either is combined with protein or as calcium ion. To standardize the calcium fortified ice-cream with calcium powder. To determine the prevalence of calcium deficiency in preschoolers in urban population. To identifies the risk factors of calcium absorption among preschoolers. The data was collected on random sampling method and tools used were nutritional assessment sheet which consists of height, weight, BMI, food habits, physical examination like the presence of signs and symptoms of calcium deficiency, and 7-day dietary recall for calcium intake. A single random sampling technique was used to select subjects representing urban preschoolers. The statistical analysis was done for collected data of 180 children. Age wise and gender-wise distribution of calcium intake. Where a total number of male in the age group of 3-4 years is 72 and the total number of males in the age group of 5-6 years is 46. Same as for females total number in the age group of 3-4 years is 37 and in the age group of 5-6 years is 25. In this study, it is observed that calcium intake in the category of 400mg to 600mg/day is more than that of other categories. it is shown that there is a significant improvement in blood serum calcium levels of children who are treated with calcium-fortified ice cream. In compare to literature study of jurain hoogerwerf (18) There were statistically significant differences in calcium absorption from the ice cream fortified formulations and milk, demonstrating that calcium-fortified ice cream is an effective vehicle for delivering calcium. The study was concluded that it was a very nutritious and calcium-rich product ( ice cream). More than 50%of children are having physical symptoms and clinical signs of calcium deficiency even if their calcium intakes are adequate and fortified products are enriched calcium absorption from the ice cream fortified formulations and milk, demonstrating that calcium-fortified ice cream is an effective vehicle for delivering calcium.
