Most of us know that calcium is needed for strong bones and teeth, but did you know that the most abundant mineral in the body is also important for helping the heart, nerves, muscles and other body systems work properly? According to the National Institutes of Health, it is not unusual for many individuals to consume less than half the calcium they need for building and maintaining healthy bones. Heavy use of caffeine such as in coffee, large intake of sodium phosphates found in carbonated drinks and alcohol can decrease the calcium the body retains. Getting enough calcium in the diet is important for helping prevent a number of health issues. Research has shown calcium may impact conditions such as osteoporosis, hypoarathyroidism, premenstrual syndrome (PMS), high blood pressure, high cholesterol, stroke, colon issues, obesity, tooth and gum disease and insomnia. Calcium is the most plentiful mineral in the body. To function properly, calcium must be accompanied by several other nutrients including Vitamin D, phosphorus and magnesium. Not all forms of calcium are equally as effective. Calcium is a difficult supplement for many people. Tablets may be weak, may be in poor forms (such as carbonate) or may not provide the necessary supporting minerals. Our formula uses calcium citrate with 2.5 times the bioavailability of calcium carbonate. It is easier to digest and less likely to cause constipation and gas. Our calcium contains the vital nutrients that the body needs to properly assimilate calcium plus a blend of the best forms of calcium. We also added boron, recommended by many to build bone density, which is key to reducing the risk of osteoporosis.
