ABSTRACT
Dietary calcium (Ca) intake can alleviate fluoride (F) induced fluorosis to maintain bone health. However, it is unclear whether calcium supplements can reduce the oral bioavailability of F present in contaminated soils. Here we evaluated the effects of Ca supplements on F bioavailability in three soils using an in vitro method (Physiologically Based Extraction Test) and an in vivo mouse model. Seven Ca salts, commonly used in calcium supplements, significantly reduced the F bioaccessibility in the gastric and small intestinal phases. Particularly for Ca phosphate at 150 mg Ca supplementation, F bioaccessibility in the small intestinal phase was reduced from 35.1-38.8% to 0.7-1.9% where soluble F concentrations were less than 1 mg/L. Overall, the eight Ca tablets tested in this study showed greater efficiency at decreasing F solubility. The in vitro bioaccessibility after Ca supplementation was consistent with the relative bioavailability of F. As supported by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, a possible mechanism is that freed F can be bound by Ca to form insoluble CaF2 and exchanged with OH groups from Al/Fe hydroxide to strongly adsorb F. These findings provide evidence of Ca supplementation in reducing health risks associated soil F exposure.
