Grand Health®_OsteoVita® Plus contains calcium citrate which is better absorbed by our body when consumed and calcium carbonate which can provides more elemental calcium.
Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body than any others. It has many functions including the maintenance and development of strong bones and teeth, keeping the heart beating regularly, alleviating insomnia, helping to metabolize the body¡¦s iron and aiding the nervous system, especially in impulse transmission. Calcium & magnesium work together for cardiovascular health. An adequate calcium intake will help to prevent common deficiency condition such as osteoporosis.
Magnesium (Magnesium Citrate & Magnesium Oxide), Vitamin D, Boron Citrate, Zinc Citrate, Manganese (Manganous HVP chelate) and Copper (Cupric HVP chelate) have been added in the formulation of Grand Health_ OsteoVita® Plus not only to aid the absorption of calcium, but also help those people suffering from osteoporosis. Magnesium is required for the proper growth and maintenance of bones; it helps the calcium absorption and relieves constipation for some patients when supplementing calcium. Vitamin D can be found in small amounts in many foods such as dairy products, cereals with vitamin D added, and fish. However, skin exposure to the sun provides as much as 80 to 90% of the body's vitamin D. It plays an important role in maintaining the proper bone structure. Without it, our body may not keep enough calcium in the bone structure, hence, resulting in symptoms such as osteoporosis. Boron is a important element option for arthritis and in more than 95% of cases significant improvement was noticed by bringing about effective calcium integration into the cartilage and bone. Boron also can greatly reduce the allergic conditions that are typically associated with rheumatoid arthritis. Zinc is other important element in a bone structure. Study have shown that people suffer from osteoporosis have lower Zinc content in the blood. Manganese aids in the formation of connective tissue, bones, blood-clotting factors, and sex hormones and plays a role in fat and carbohydrate metabolism, calcium absorption, and blood sugar regulation. Copper is a common treatment for rheumatoid arthritis and osteoporosis, because it helps promote healthy collagen in the body, copper may relieve aching joints and minimize loss in mineral bone density. Therefore, Grand Health®_ OsteoVita® Plus is a well formulated and new Calcium supplement that you will find in the market.
