OsteCAL
Plus
The Most Complete
Nutritional Support for Bone Health
Three tablets a day provide the
following nutrients:
1 Calcium
Taking calcium supplements can
help prevent bone loss in calcium-deficient people and can help prevent
osteoporosis.
2. Vitamin D
Vitamin D helps body absorb
calcium. Low levels of vitamin D are common in women especially the elderly.
Deficiencies of vitamin D can lead to calcium deficiencies, leading to soft
bones (osteomalacia).
3. Magnesium
Magnesium is essential for both
the preservation and mobilization of calcium in the bone and is required for
the utilization of vitamin D. Magnesium deficiency is common and is a
leading risk factor for osteoporosis.
4. Manganese
Manganese is a trace mineral
required for the synthesis of connective tissue that form the matrix upon
which mineral deposition occurs.
5. Boron
Boron is need to convert vitamin
D into its active form, which explain why boron deficiency affects calcium
metabolism and bone formation. Boron reduces calcium loss from bones.
6. Zinc
Zinc supports bone formation by
enhancing the action of vitamin D. Zinc helps maintain bon structure and is
involved in bone development.
7. Copper
Copper deficiency may lead to
abnormal bone deposition. Copper helps form the building blocks of bone.
