Overview

Milk minerals are a natural mineral complex derived from milk, primarily composed of calcium phosphate along with magnesium, potassium, and phosphorus. Developed and manufactured by Arla Foods Ingredients (specifically under the brand name Capolac), these minerals are studied for their metabolic effects, particularly their ability to stimulate the secretion of gut hormones such as glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and peptide tyrosine-tyrosine (PYY). The mechanism involves the activation of the calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) on intestinal L-cells, which acts synergistically with dietary proteins to enhance incretin release. Clinical research indicates that milk minerals may play a role in appetite suppression, increasing energy expenditure, and improving postprandial glucose metabolism, making them a candidate for the management of obesity and metabolic disorders.
