Tiens Tianshi Nutrient High Calcium Powder II – 360mg Calcium in a Warm Drink
Tiens Tianshi Nutrient High Calcium Powder II turns a cup of warm water into a calcium drink. Each individually sealed 10 g bag supplies an estimated 360 mg of calcium from zymolytic ox-bone calcium — 45% of the EU and UK labelling reference value in one cup (calculated). Ten bags to a box, sweetened with aspartame, and made with de-fatted milk powder and cocoa.
Calcium is needed for the maintenance of normal bones and normal teeth, and contributes to normal muscle function. If a large calcium tablet is difficult to swallow, this is the same nutrient in a form you drink.
Recs-Medix has been an authorised TIENS distributor in Nigeria since 2017. Buy online, order on WhatsApp, or collect from our Lagos or Abuja store. Payment on Delivery nationwide, DHL Express worldwide.
Key benefits
- 360 mg of calcium in every bag — 45% of the EU and UK labelling reference value in a single drink (calculated).
- Bones and teeth — calcium is needed for the maintenance of normal bones and normal teeth.
- Muscles and nerves — calcium contributes to normal muscle function and normal neurotransmission.
- Everyday metabolism — calcium contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism, normal blood clotting and the normal function of digestive enzymes, and has a role in the process of cell division and specialisation.
- A drink, not a tablet — mixes into 250 ml of warm water in seconds.
- Pre-portioned bags — each 10 g bag is one serving, so there is nothing to measure and nothing to spill.
- Sweetened with aspartame — sucrose is not listed among the ingredients.
Why a calcium drink instead of a tablet
Calcium tablets are large, because calcium is a bulky mineral and there is no way around it. This powder solves the format problem rather than the nutrient problem: the calcium is the same, but it arrives as a warm drink that takes about thirty seconds to make.
The pre-portioned bags matter more than they sound. There is no scoop, no jar that clumps in humid weather, and no guessing at a serving size — one bag is one serving, so a box travels in a handbag or a suitcase and the routine survives a trip. It is also why the product is searched for as a calcium drink, calcium sachets, calcium powder for adults or simply calcium supplement powder rather than by name.

How many boxes do you need?
One box is ten bags, so it is a shorter supply than most supplement packs. Work out the period you want covered before you order:
| Period you want covered | At one bag daily | At two bags daily |
|---|---|---|
| 2 weeks | 2 boxes | 3 boxes |
| 1 month | 3 boxes | 6 boxes |
All figures calculated from 10 bags per box. Divide the box price by 5 or by 10 and you have the daily cost, whatever the price is on the day you order. Ordering the full period in one go keeps the routine unbroken and spreads a single DHL charge across every box instead of paying it again each time you run out. Add the quantity you need to the cart, or message us on WhatsApp and we will confirm availability on larger quantities first.
Who may prefer this calcium powder
- Anyone who struggles with tablets. A warm drink is easier to get down than a large calcium tablet, and easier to keep up.
- People whose diet is low in dairy. Calcium intake tends to run low where milk, yoghurt and cheese are eaten rarely.
- Anyone who takes supplements at a set time each day. It fits the slot a morning or evening hot drink already occupies, which makes it easier to remember.
- People who travel or work away from home. Sealed single bags need no scoop, no measuring and no fridge.
- Shoppers who read the sweetener line. Aspartame is listed among the ingredients; sucrose is not.
- Customers already using the Tiens Tianshi range who want the calcium powder from the same manufacturer.

What is in each 10 g bag
| Ingredient | Per 10 g bag | Share of the bag (calculated) |
|---|---|---|
| De-fatted milk powder | 2,680 mg | 26.8% |
| Zymolytic bone calcium powder | 2,100 mg | 21.0% |
| Polydextrose | 2,000 mg | 20.0% |
| Pumpkin powder | 1,700 mg | 17.0% |
| Isomaltooligosaccharide | 1,250 mg | 12.5% |
| Cocoa powder | 200 mg | 2.0% |
| Aspartame | 35 mg | 0.4% |
| Multivitamins | 35 mg | 0.4% |
| Estimated calcium content | 360 mg | – |
The eight declared ingredients add up to exactly 10,000 mg, the full weight of the bag (calculated). Polydextrose and isomaltooligosaccharide are soluble carbohydrates that give the powder its body, cocoa carries the flavour, and pumpkin powder rounds it out. The multivitamin blend is declared as a combined 35 mg; for the vitamin-by-vitamin breakdown, contact us and we can check the available product information for you.
One bag gives 360 mg of calcium, which is 45% of the 800 mg reference value used on EU and UK labels and 28% of the 1,300 mg US Daily Value. Two bags give 720 mg, or 90% and 55% (all calculated from the stated 360 mg). These reference values are the standard figures used for labelling and comparison, not a personal target — individual calcium requirements vary with age, life stage and diet.
What is zymolytic bone calcium powder?
Zymolytic bone calcium powder is the calcium source in this formula, and it is the reason the product is named as it is. The manufacturer prepares it from fresh ox bone using bioengineering technology and extraction, then blends in de-fatted milk powder, oligosaccharide, pumpkin powder and a mineral and vitamin addition to make the finished drink.
One practical point follows from that source: it is an animal-derived ingredient, so this powder is not suitable for vegetarians or vegans.
The pack carries the Tiens brand mark above the product name printed as TIANSHI NUTRIENT HIGH CALCIUM POWDER (II), which is why the product is listed and searched for as Tiens Tianshi Nutrient High Calcium Powder II, Tianshi High Calcium Powder or Tiens Calcium Powder II. The manufacturer states its Health Care Effect on the pack as: “Used as calcium supplement in calcium deficiency state. These claims have not been evaluated by NAFDAC. This product is not intended to cure, prevent or diagnose any disease or ailment.”
How to take it
- Dissolve one bag of powder in a 250 ml cup of warm water at 60–70°C.
- Stir until the powder is fully dispersed.
- Take once or twice daily, or mix into other food.
- Use water in the stated 60–70°C range rather than boiling water straight off the heat.
What this product does not do
This is a food supplement, not a medicine. It does not cure, prevent or diagnose any disease or ailment, and no claim is made here that it does. It does not replace any prescribed medication.
It is not a sugar-free product. Sucrose is not listed among the ingredients and the sweetness comes from aspartame, but de-fatted milk powder is the largest single ingredient and milk powder naturally contains lactose, a milk sugar.
A supplement supports a varied diet rather than replacing one. Dairy, small fish eaten with the bones, dark green vegetables and calcium-set tofu remain the foundation of calcium intake.
Who should avoid it or check first
Allergens and dietary suitability
- Contains milk. De-fatted milk powder is 26.8% of every bag (calculated). Avoid this product if you have a milk allergy, and take advice from your doctor if you are lactose intolerant.
- Contains aspartame, a source of phenylalanine. People with phenylketonuria (PKU) must avoid it. For everyone else, two bags supply 70 mg of aspartame; EFSA’s acceptable daily intake for aspartame is 40 mg per kilogram of body weight, or 2,400 mg for a 60 kg adult, so two bags come to roughly 3% of that figure (calculated).
- Contains an animal-derived ingredient. The calcium comes from ox bone.
- Contains cocoa.
Speak to a doctor before use if
- You have kidney disease, a history of kidney stones, hyperparathyroidism or high blood calcium.
- You already take a calcium supplement, a calcium-and-vitamin-D product or a calcium-containing antacid.
- You are pregnant or breastfeeding.
- You are managing a diagnosed condition or take prescribed medication daily.
- The powder is intended for a child.
Medicine timing, intake limits and storage
Calcium binds to several medicines in the gut and reduces how much of them you absorb, and the gap required is not the same for every medicine. The FDA-approved label for levothyroxine instructs patients taking a calcium carbonate supplement to avoid taking levothyroxine within four hours of it. Tetracycline and quinolone antibiotics, bisphosphonates and iron supplements each carry their own separate spacing instructions, and calcium can also affect blood levels of lithium and digoxin. Take this drink at a different time of day from your medicines and ask your pharmacist or doctor to set the exact gap for your own prescriptions.
Total calcium from every source matters as well. The NIH Office of Dietary Supplements gives the upper limit for adults as 2,500 mg a day, falling to 2,000 mg from age 51, counting food, fortified products and supplements together. The same source notes that calcium is absorbed most efficiently in amounts of about 500 mg or less at a time, which is worth knowing when deciding whether to take one bag or two.
Store in a cool, dry place at room temperature, away from children. Shelf life is 24 months, with the manufacture date printed on the base of the pack.

Frequently asked questions
What do you use calcium powder for?
Calcium powder is a way of topping up daily calcium intake when food alone falls short, and it suits people who find tablets hard to swallow or who prefer taking a supplement as a drink. Calcium is needed for the maintenance of normal bones and normal teeth, and contributes to normal muscle function, normal neurotransmission, normal blood clotting, normal energy-yielding metabolism and the normal function of digestive enzymes.
How much calcium is in one bag?
An estimated 360 mg, which is 45% of the 800 mg EU and UK labelling reference value and 28% of the 1,300 mg US Daily Value (calculated).
How long does one box last?
Ten days at one bag daily, or five days at two. A month at one bag a day is three boxes; a month at two bags a day is six (calculated).
What does it taste like?
The flavour comes from de-fatted milk powder, the largest ingredient at 2,680 mg a bag, and 200 mg of cocoa powder, so it mixes into a milk-and-cocoa drink rather than a plain one. How strong that reads is a matter of personal taste and how much water you use.
Is it safe to take calcium supplements twice a day?
The label instruction for this powder is once or twice daily. Two bags supply about 720 mg of calcium across two servings, and the NIH Office of Dietary Supplements gives the adult upper limit as 2,500 mg a day from all sources, falling to 2,000 mg from age 51. Add up what you already get from food and any other supplement, and speak to your doctor or pharmacist if you are close to that figure or take medication daily.
Does it contain sugar?
Sucrose is not listed among the ingredients and the sweetness comes from aspartame. De-fatted milk powder is the largest ingredient and naturally contains lactose, so the drink is not sugar-free.
Is it suitable for vegetarians?
No. The calcium is derived from ox bone, and the powder also contains milk.
Can I take it with my medication?
Calcium reduces absorption of several common medicines, including levothyroxine, tetracycline and quinolone antibiotics, bisphosphonates and iron supplements, and the spacing needed differs by medicine. Take the drink at a different time of day and ask your pharmacist to set the exact gap for your prescriptions.
Can I buy Tiens Tianshi calcium powder in Lagos or Abuja?
Yes. We hold stock at both our Lagos and Abuja stores, so you can buy over the counter, or order for delivery anywhere in Nigeria in 1–3 days with Payment on Delivery.
Do you deliver outside Nigeria?
Yes. We ship by DHL Express to the US, UK, Canada, the EU and Australia, typically in 3–5 business days.
What are the benefits of Tiens Tianshi products?
Each Tiens Tianshi product does a different job, so what it supplies depends on the item rather than the brand — this one is a calcium supplement. If you are wondering why some packs read TIENS and others read Tianshi, our guide to Tiens vs Tianshi explains the company connection and how to check a pack. The Tiens brand page lists what Recs-Medix stocks in Nigeria.
How do I know the pack is genuine?
Buy from an authorised distributor. Recs-Medix has supplied the Tiens Tianshi range in Nigeria since 2017, and every box leaves us factory-sealed with the barcode 6909753587315 and the batch and manufacture date printed on the base. Check both before you open it, and check them in the store if you are buying over the counter in Lagos or Abuja. Our guide to verifying a genuine Tiens or Tianshi pack covers the seal, batch and manufacturer checks in full.
