// SYSTEM OVERVIEW

This educational atlas provides general information about calcium and vitamin D—two nutrients commonly discussed in relation to bone health. The content is for informational purposes only and does not constitute medical advice. Individual nutritional needs vary significantly. Consult healthcare professionals for personalized guidance.

guest@nutrient-atlas:~$ display --nutrients calcium vitaminD

🦴 CALCIUM [Ca]

Essential mineral for bone structure, muscle function, nerve transmission, and blood clotting. The body cannot produce calcium—it must be obtained from food or supplements.

Stored in bones/teeth 99%

Typical daily need (adults) 1000-1200mg*

☀️ VITAMIN D [D3/D2]

Fat-soluble vitamin that enables calcium absorption. Also supports immune function and muscle health. Body produces it from sunlight; also obtained from food and supplements.

People with low levels ~40%*

Typical daily need (adults) 600-800IU*

*Values are general references, not individual recommendations. Requirements vary by person.
