Product Description

Calcium hydroxyapatite bone complex in capsules Vitamin D is
the precursor of 1, 25-dihydroxycholecalciferol, a potent hormone that promotes
the intestinal absorption of calcium. Vitamin K is required for the activation
of a bone protein that is responsible for bone calcium retention. Magnesium
regulates calcium transport and appears to be required for normal bone growth. Boron
may increase the levels of several hormones that retain calcium in bones, and
can reduce urinary excretion of calcium and magnesium. HydroxyCal supplies a
high level of microcrystalline hydroxyapatite complex from bone tissue, along
with a complex of nutrients relevant to bone health and repair. Hydroxyapatite
is an efficient source of calcium supplementation, as it is a very similar form
of calcium to that found in human bone. Bovine whole bone extract is a rich
source of calcium, phosphorus, trace minerals, and proteins, effectively
preserved for use in HydroxyCal by freeze-drying. The citric and malic acid
salts of calcium found in HydroxyCal are readily absorbed in humans.
