A liquid food additive having a relatively high content of calcium. The food additive is produced by mixing in water an ionizable calcium composition having an alkalinity with lactic acid. As the ionizable calcium composition, is preferably used a calcium composition which is produced by heating the powder of shells such that the powder is at least partially decomposed. Also, is preferably used lactic acid which is produced by lactic acid fermentation and purified. The food additive is effectively prepared by the steps of suspending the calcium composition powder in water; mixing the suspension with an aqueous solution of lactic acid; and stirring the mixture until the powder is completely dissolved. A processed foodstuff mixed with the food additive is disclosed. |
