- EuroMedica - OsteoStrong - 120 Tablets Euro Medica Osteo Strong tablets maintain strong, healthy bones. Bone requires a variety of nutrients in addition to calcium, including vitamins, minerals, amino acids and trace minerals. OsteoStrong is a unique formula that contains the necessary nutritional components to maintain strong, healthy bones. With OsteoStrong, you will be protecting your bones for life. Bone is exceptional living tissue and requires more than calcium. It needs a variety of nutrients including vitamins, minerals, amino acids, too. OsteoStrong has them. Provides calcium plus other bone-building nutrients Provides a 2:1 ratio of calcium and magnesium OsteoStrong contains all the nutritional components you need to maintain strong, healthy bones: Vitamin D3 promotes proper calcium absorption in the intestines, and aids in bone growth and healthy bone development. Vitamin K aids in the formation of proteins which promote bone mineralization and bone development. Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body – 99% of which makes up the structure of bones and teeth. Magnesium helps the body absorb and use minerals properly, including calcium and phosphorus to help build bones. Zinc has been the subject of research connecting its intake with bone health. Copper (along with zinc) is an essential cofactor for enzymes involved in building the bone matrix. Manganese is an essential nutrient for bone formation. Fructoborate is a form of borate found in fruits and vegetables that supports calcium metabolism and serum levels of vitamin D. Vitamin K-2 helps support bone mineralization and calcium in absorption in bones. Lactobacillus sporogenes (Bacillus coagulans) is a probiotic that yields lactic acid, creating a better environment in the intestines to promote greater mineral absorption, particularly of calcium. Silicon is involved in bone formation through the synthesis and/or stabilization of collagen, which aids in resilience of bone and connective tissue. Frequently Asked Questions for OsteoStrong: Why can't I just take calcium? Because even though calcium is the major mineral in bones and teeth, just using calcium alone isn't enough to support their health. Calcium works best with other minerals that help it absorb and build bone structure, especially magnesium, phosphorus, and vitamin D. Is all calcium the same? No. With calcium, as with most nutrients, the most important factor is quality, not quantity. OsteoStrong combines calcium citrate and malate, two very absorbable forms of the mineral. The citrate form is up to 40% absorbable, while by contrast, the commonly used carbonate form is only about 10% absorbable. Additionally, just taking more calcium isn't necessary. The body uses calcium the most efficiently in smaller amounts divided through the day than one “megadose” of calcium taken all at the same time. Do I really need to worry about healthy bones? I'm still young. When it comes to supporting healthy bones, you really can't start too early. By the age of 20, the average person has acquired 98% of their skeletal mass. But lifestyle choices, including diet and exercise can affect the health of bones. Research has shown that the earlier that bone density is preserved and bone health supported, the more successfully individuals will enter into their later years without serious concerns about bone density and strength.
