Torrent Pharmaceuticals Ltd. has announced the launch of Shelcal® Total, a scientifically formulated adult nutrition supplement powder that expands its flagship Shelcal brand into the rapidly growing nutrition segment. 

Shelcal Total marks the brand’s evolution into a modern, consumer-focused nutrition portfolio. 

“India is facing a growing nutrition gap driven by lifestyle changes, poor dietary habits, and rising stress levels — all of which contribute to deficiencies across age groups,” said Amal Kelshikar, Chief Commercial Officer, India Business, Torrent Pharma. 

“As health awareness increases and more adults are in need of convenient holistic nutrition, the demand for trusted, convenient solutions is only accelerating. Shelcal® Total is our answer to that need — a science-backed, great-tasting supplement that makes comprehensive daily nutrition more accessible and easier to adopt, while upholding Shelcal’s long-standing credibility and consumer trust.” 

Formulated with vegetarian-origin ingredients, Shelcal Total contains no added sugar, artificial colours and flavours, making it suitable for health-conscious adults managing their calorie intake. 

Each serving delivers targeted nutrients including calcium, magnesium, vitamin D3 and K2 for bone strength, most notably, it has glucosamine and bamboo shoot extract for joint health, —another often overlooked area in mainstream nutrition. 

“Through the years, I have observed that the challenge most Indian adults, particularly those over 30, face aren’t just individual nutrient gaps, but how these interconnected deficiencies affect bone density, muscle mass, and joint mobility." said Nmami Agarwal, Certified Nutritionist.
