NEW ADVANCED FORMULA CALMAG WITH BORON EXTENDS THE EFFICACY OF CALCIUM & MAGNESIUM AGAINST OSTEOPOROSIS, BONE SHRINKAGE AND DANGEROUS BREAKAGES IN LATER LIFE – WITH IMPROVED SLEEP, MUSCULAR AND NERVOUS SYSTEM BENEFITS.
Osteoporosis is the degeneration of bone mineral density, mass and strength. This results in thinner bones and increases the risk of fracture. Osteoporosis is triggered by the hormone changes at menopause. Early stages maybe without symptoms, but the disease can progress to crippling spinal fractures and broken hips. Calcium and magnesium in correct balance are absolutely vital for strong healthy bones and teeth.
CALCIUM MAGNESIUM ALLIANCE Studies have shown that supplementing the diet with calcium increases bone density in pre- and postmenopausal women and slows bone degeneration in postmenopausal women by an average of 30 to 50%, which means a significant reduction in hip fractures. Osteoporosis is a condition in which the softening and breakdown of bone tissue occurs more rapidly than it is replaced. It is a degenerative process related to ageing. One of the earliest indicators of bone loss is a gradual diminishing of stature.
VITAMIN-D Without sufficient magnesium, Vitamin D is less concentrated in the body and the body is unable to convert it to its most active form. Magnesium is also important in the secretion of parathyroid hormone (PTH) and calcitonin, the two hormones that maintain proper calcium concentration in the blood. When we lack magnesium, the balance between PTH and calcitonin leans too far towards PTH, resulting in bone loss.
THE VITAL TRACE ELEMENTS Boron is an essential trace mineral that is vital for proper calcium absorption. It helps to encourage the metabolism of essential bone nutrients to maintain the calcium balance that is critical to sound skeletal health. It is also believed to play a role in hormone regulation linked to its involvement in estrogen and Vitamin D metabolism. Boron affects homone levels and helps to balance them, and assists in the manufacture of Vitamin D by the body. Magnesium is also vital to calcium action. A deficiency can cause losses of calcium benefits that can result in premature ageing, impaired circulation, cramps and restlessness. Together, with boron it can be helpful in managing high blood pressure, mood and menstrual problems. Vitamins C and D, zinc and copper are other powerful team players that work to maximize bone strengthening benefits. Studies indicate that boron may help to reduce the urinary excretion of calcium and magnesium. The presence of boron reduces calcium loss. Magnesium increases the absorption of the calcium and also increases its effectiveness in mineralising bone. And by converting Vitamin- D into its active form, magnesium helps to fix calcium into the bone tissue.
SAFEGUARDS BONES, HEART, NERVES
The benefits that accrue from a calcium-magnesium investment in well-being are many.
Firstly, and most importantly, the vital strength of your bone structure is protected. Secondly, the heart, muscles and nervous system benefit too. Calcium helps prevent blood clotting and muscular cramps. Magnesium protects the arteries from stress or high blood pressure and keeps the heart beating regularly. Magnesium is immensely valuable in heart attack survival and helps to promote a healthy cardiovascular system.
ADVANCED FORMULA CALMAG WITH BORON helps to counter stress, depression, prevents insomnia, assists the body to use iron more effectively and supports the nervous system's impulse transmissions. This combination is also helpful in converting blood sugar to energy and for that reason it is important that hypoglycaemics take extra amounts. Calcium taken alone has been shown to slow down bone loss. However, studies have shown that calcium taken in conjunction with magnesium increases bone density. The ideal formulation being two parts calcium to every one part magnesium.
VITAMIN-C
This vitamin is essential as the body’s ability to build bone cannot occur without Vitamin C, a powerful antioxidant and effective cell and immunity protector. It is important in the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis due to its ability to increase bone density. Vitamin C promotes connective tissue in bone, it is on this foundation that bone-hardening calcium is laid. As women age Vitamin C levels decline so that without adequate Vitamin C supplementation bones are unable to utilize calcium.
ZINC is the essential mineral needed in the construction of DNA, and to maintain healthy bones. A co-catalyst for enzymes that change beta-carotene into Vitamin A in the body’s cells, zinc is necessary for the formation of the collagen matrix that supports strong bones. Zinc is often low in women with osteoporosis and those who take unbalanced calcium supplements. This deficiency may be linked to decreases in bone density.
COPPER, VITAMIN-D AND TISSUE SALTS
Copper is an essential trace mineral most important in the normal growth and development of the skeletal system. It is one of the minerals that work with Vitamin C to form elastin, the formation of red blood cells for good bone health and support in countering bone loss.Clinical tests have shown that there is evidence of bone weakness in even cases of mild copper deficiency. It is believed that as human beings age there is a reduced efficiency of gastrointestinal absorption of minerals such as copper and zinc resulting in an increased rate of bone loss. Essential for the transportation of calcium and phosphorus into the bone tissue. Vitamin D works to enable the body to absorb calcium, thus helping to prevent osteoporosis. It also helps to reduce loss of calcium in the urine. Calc Fluor, Calc Sulph, Calc Phos, Nat Phos are nutrient Tissue Salts that have a bone strengthening and protecting effect.
All in all, new CALMAG ADVANCED FORMULA WITH BORON represents a precisely balanced formulation of ALL the key nutrients required to ensure strong healthy bones. |
