Each serving contains:
Vitamin C - 150 mg
Calcium (from Microcrystalline Hydroxyapatite) - 500 mg
Phosphorus (from Microcrystalline Hydroxyapatite) - 260 mg
Microcrystalline Hydroxyapatit - 2,000 mg
Boron (as Boron Citrate/Aspartate) - 5 mg
Other ingredients: Cellulose, hydroxypropyl cellulose, carboxymethyl cellulose, stearic acid, vegetable stearate and silica.
As a dietary supplement, adults take 2 tablets daily or as directed by your healthcare professional.
The adult human body contains approximately 1,200 g of calcium, about 99% of which is present in the skeleton. Bone is constantly turning over, a continuous process of formation and resorption. In children and adolescents, the rate of formation of bone mineral predominates over the rate of resorption. In later life, resorption predominates over formation. Therefore, in normal aging, there is a gradual loss of bone. It is generally accepted that obtaining enough dietary calcium throughout life supports bone health. Among other factors, such as regular exercise, gender and race, calcium supplementation during childhood and adolescence appears to be a prerequisite for maintaining adequate bone density later in life.
Calcium Microcrystalline Hydroxyapatite provides a highly beneficial source of dietary calcium together with other naturally occurring nutrients like phosphorus that assist in the maintenance of healthy bone structure and function, and aids in the absorption of calcium. Boron affects the composition, structure, and strength of bone. It appears to be necessary for calcium and magnesium absorption, their adequate renal reabsorption, and their incorporation into the bone matrix. Boron is absorbed at about 90% efficiency and is rapidly distributed among the tissues.
