Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body and is critical for the development and maintenance of strong bones and teeth. Calcium not only prevents osteoporosis it has also been linked to protect against high blood pressure. This brand provides highly bioavailable calcium from multiple sources, plus “helper” nutrients crucial to the process of bone development. Calcium and magnesium, necessary for strong bones and teeth, are also critical to many enzyme reactions, cardiovascular health, and nerve and muscle function. The added magnesium, vitamin C, and betaine hydrochloride are added for better calcium utilization and does not contains bone meal or dolomite. This blend is 100% organically-derived blend of readily soluble and bioavailable calcium sources.
Suggested Use: Take 1 - 4 Chewable tablets daily, or as instructed by your healthcare provider. Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight.
