Bone Health & More

KEY INGREDIENTS:

CALCIUM CITRATE: Calcium is needed in the body for strong bones and teeth, maintain a regular heart beat, transmit nerve impulses, support muscle growth and contraction, prevent muscle cramps, support healthy blood clotting, and may also lower blood pressure. When calcium intake is low or is poorly absorbed, bone breakdown occurs. This increases one’s susceptibility to problems such as osteoporosis, muscle cramps, and arthritis.  Not just limited to bone health, your entire body, including the heart, muscles and nerves all need calcium to function properly.

MAGNESIUM OXIDE: assists in potassium and calcium uptake, may be helpful in cases of dizziness, depression, muscle weakness, twitching, heart disease, and high blood pressure and aids in maintaining the proper pH balance in the body. Up to 90% of Americans need more magnesium.  Without Magnesium, calcium cannot be effectively absorbed and utilized by the body. It can collect in soft tissues and cause a type of arthritis. It not only collects in the soft tissues, but may not even be absorbed into the blood and bones. Magnesium stimulates the process in our bodies that regulates the levels of calcium in our bones and soft tissues.

BORON:  The addition of a safe amount of Boron makes the product even more effective in increasing the uptake and absorption of calcium. It also helps metabolize minerals like magnesium and copper, which aid in healthy bone development. It also helps to balance estrogen and testosterone in the body.

VITAMIN D3 acts to also help balance calcium intake and aids in maintaining healthy bones and teeth. Supports the body in bone mass building and prevention of bone loss, and can protect against muscle weakness.  It also helps protect the body against conditions like diabetes and multiple sclerosis.

SHAVEGRASS, HORSETAIL (Equisetum arvense): a healing herb rich in nutrients and high in silica, helps the body absorb calcium and promotes strong and healthy nails, teeth, hair, skin, and, strong bones. The body is actually able to utilize the silica in Horsetail and transmute it into calcium. Calcium is, of course, one of the most needed minerals in the body. Horsetail has been used for centuries for nourishment when needed and to provide Silica, an extremely important mineral in the body.  This is particularly beneficial for countering bone loss and osteoporosis. 

BROMELAIN: has been used to help the absorption of medicines into the body and is also a natural anti-inflammatory agent. It contains a protease enzyme that may be beneficial to the heart.  Bromelain, a Proteolytic enzyme, can reduce inflammation by breaking down proteins in swollen tissues.  It can reduce the clustering of platelets, the formation of plaques in the arteries and the formation of blood clots. All of these effects help to prevent and treat cardiovascular disease and promote healing.  Is  most often used for traumatic injuries and surgery.

Our formula also contains kelp, passion flower, and valerian root, which each support the absorption and utilization of calcium and magnesium and promote overall better health.

ATLANTIC KELP (Fucus versiculosus): Atlantic Kelp is considered the cleanest (from pollution) and most nutritious kelp as it comes from the north Atlantic (Norway). Its Iodine content is predictable and it is very high in minerals in a broad spectrum (60 to 70). Because these minerals occur in a live plant source assimilation is excellent.

PASSION FLOWER (Passiflora incarnata): A nervine, this herb is considered effective as an antispasmodic and a sedative. It is safe to use over long periods with and is beneficial for those with insomnia. 

VALERIAN ROOT (Valeriana officinalis): Valerian is the very best herbal source of calcium and an excellent herbal source of magnesium. It contains aromatic compounds that have a sedative effect, acting to decrease anxiety and aggression. These compounds also relieve smooth muscle spasms, lower blood pressure and improve sleep quality in cases of insomnia. It has been used to treat nervousness, anxiety, insomnia, stomach cramps, muscle spasms, hysteria, and convulsions.
