Product Description

Naturally-occurring isoflavone phytonutrients with Vitamin
D3 and citrate-malate source calcium and magnesium Extensive basic and clinical
data on the isoflavone derivative ipriflavone suggests that it is a safe and
efficacious alternative to estrogen therapy for increasing bone mass in
postmenopausal women. (Menopause 1999 6(3):233-41). Calcium, as the
citrate/malate salt, has been shown to be a preferred form of calcium
supplement and to reduce bone loss in postmenopausal women. (N Engl J Med 1990
Sept; 323(13):878-83). Vitamin D is the precursor of 1, 25
dihydroxycholecalciferol, an extremely potent hormone that promotes the
intestinal absorption of calcium. Vitamin D supplementation can augment the
favorable effect of calcium supplementation on bone health in postmenopausal
women. (Amer J Clin Nut 1995 May;61(5):1140-45). Vitamin K, interacting with
calcium and possibly vitamin D, has an important role in the maintenance of
bone formation and bone density. (Osteoporos Int. 1999;9 Suppl 2:S48-52).
Normal boron nutritional status is beneficial for optimal calcium and bone metabolism.
