OsteoMend

What the brand says

Sold as “OsteoMend - 90ct”

The importance of calcium in preventing osteoporosis is undeniable. Yet, calcium does not work alone in creating strong, healthy bones. Although calcium is a major constituent of bone, the whole bone matrix is composed of a variety of other minerals including phosphorus, magnesium, over 20 trace elements, proteins, collagen, and glycosaminoglycans. Any combination of these may be lost in diseases related to bone deterioration. It is imperative to replace them all in order to rebuild bone.* The superiority of Microcrystalline Calcium Hydroxyapatite (MCHC) compared to traditional forms of calcium has been shown in a number of controlled calcium balance and calcium absorption studies. The whole bone extract is exceptionally well-absorbed, producing more prolonged positive balance than soluble calcium salts.* MCHC has been uniquely found to not only prevent further loss of bone, but to restore its mineral content, and is also well-tolerated. Unlike calcium carbonate, the bone extract does not produce carbon dioxide known to interfere with digestion.* It is important not to confuse MCHC with bone meal. Although MCHC is derived from bone, MCHC is specially processed to retain all bone minerals and organic residues intact in their natural physiological ratios. Unlike many bone meal products, MCHC is not heated or treated with chemical solvents.* Recommendations Helion Nutraceuticals recommends (for adults): 1 to 6 capsules daily in divided doses, 30 to 60 minutes before meals. Maintenance: 1 capsule, 3 times a day. Therapuetic: 2 capsules, 3 times a day. *at time of manufacture
