Key Ingredients
How This Differs from Osteo Protect

Calcium
This supplement contains 3 (versus 2) sources of calcium. Together they represent the best types of calcium for strengthening weakened bones. Calcium has been shown to prevent bone loss, protect against cancer and is required for digestion, metabolism and muscle function. It is also beneficial for irregular heartbeats and regulation of nerve function.

Vitamin C
Vitamin C is a critical cofactor to Calcium and Magnesium for building and repairing bone. This supplement contains Vitamin C in the buffered form to provide additional gastrointestinal benefits as well as serve as a fourth source of calcium.

Magnesium
This supplement contains 3 (versus 1) source of magnesium for enhanced absorption and activity. Magnesium is required for optimal bone and dental health. It is also beneficial for PMS, Irregular Heartbeat, High Blood Pressure, ADHD and Diabetes.

Vitamin K-2
Vitamin K-2 is normally produced in the body as well as found in fermented cheese, sauerkraut, egg yolks and natto. It is essential for its role in calcium regulation. Vitamin K-1 is found in green leafy vegetables and is involved in blood clotting. Vitamin K-2 assists in assuring calcium is deposited in the bones and not the soft tissues like the heart and arteries. People on the blood thinner Coumadin are instructed to avoid Vitamin K-1 not K-2. A major side effect of Coumadin is calcification of the heart and blood vessels; Vitamin K-2 protects against that.

Guidelines
Osteo Protect suggested directions are 1 tablet for every decade of life (1 for teenagers, 2 in 20’s, 3 while in 30's etc). Most people experience Osteopenia (less bone) by age 50, so switching to Osteo Protect Plus is advised. Guidelines are for 4 tablets to maintain good bone health and increase the amount for advanced bone loss or fractures.

Why Is Bone Health Important?

Bone serves several important functions in the body. These include forming the skeleton, which supports and protects the soft organs of the body like the heart and brain. Bones allow for an upright posture and work together with muscles to produce body movement. They also store minerals and produce blood cells. All these functions are vital to human life. If bones are not provided with nutrients needed to maintain health they will begin to break down and become osteoporotic.

Osteoporosis is a common disease of the bones that can affect both women and men and lead to fracturing. These broken bones can lead to severe complications like Infection, Blood Clots, Disability, Dementia and even death. In fact, 50% of women over age 65 who suffer a hip fracture will die within one year of the incident.

Certain factors promote the development of bone disease. These include being a female, Caucasian race, increasing age and a small body frame. Other risks include high protein intake, consuming soft drinks and alcohol, smoking, lack of exercise and the use of medications such as Ritalin, Synthroid, Levoxyl, diuretics and steroids.

Optimal bone health requires the intake of certain minerals like Calcium and other nutrients. Research clearly proves Calcium Citrate and Hydroxyapatite are superior for bone health. Cofactors including Vitamin D, C, E, B-6, Boron and Magnesium promote bone health. Vitamin K-2 and Ipriflavone assist in maximizing bone integrity. Osteo Protect Plus utilizes current research to provide the best bone formula supplement for moderate to advanced bone problems.
