Description | Super Cal Plus is a specialized formulation designed with a blend of six meticulously researched nutrients aimed at enhancing bone health through various mechanisms:
Bones are composed of an organic matrix primarily made up of collagen and growth factors, alongside an inorganic matrix consisting mainly of calcium hydroxyapatite crystals. This balanced composition provides bones with resilience against impacts. However, as individuals age, the natural process of bone regeneration diminishes, potentially leading to a loss in bone mass. In the United States alone, millions of people are affected by bone fragility, with a significant portion of the population at risk of osteoporotic fractures during their lifetime. Factors such as age, medication use, lack of physical activity, smoking, genetic predisposition, and dietary habits contribute to bone loss over time. Maintaining healthy bones requires a combination of key nutrients including microcrystalline hydroxyapatite complex (MCHC), calcium, magnesium, Vitamin D, Vitamin K, boron, and copper. These nutrients work synergistically to support calcium absorption, utilization, and overall bone strength. Microcrystalline hydroxyapatite complex (MCHC) serves as a comprehensive source of calcium, offering superior bioavailability and additional essential minerals like magnesium, potassium, zinc, and others, alongside protein growth factors crucial for bone health. Magnesium, boron, and copper further aid in enhancing calcium absorption and reducing calcium loss from bones. Vitamin D3 plays a vital role in bone protection by facilitating calcium absorption in the body. Adequate Vitamin D levels are crucial for children in building strong bones and for adults in maintaining bone health throughout life. Insufficient Vitamin D levels have been linked to lower bone density and increased fracture risk in older individuals. Research highlights the importance of Vitamin K, particularly Vitamin K2, in supporting bone health by helping to maintain bone mass. Sources of Vitamin K include various green, leafy vegetables, although individuals taking blood thinners should consult healthcare providers before significantly altering their Vitamin K intake due to its role in blood coagulation. It's important to note that while Super Cal Plus provides comprehensive support for bone health, these statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. The product is intended to support overall bone health and strength but is not meant to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. |
