Are you concerned about your daily volume of calcium per day? Do you feel the need to take more calcium as a way of possibly avoiding potential osteoporosis and/or arthritis problems in the future?

Consider the following fact:
Sixty eight percent of Americans are not getting enough calcium in their diets. So the question remains - What is calcium, and what does it do for us? Our bones and teeth contain approximately 99% of the body's calcium content. The other approximate 1% circulates through the blood stream. Bone health (including teeth and joints) can be dependent on many factors which include heredity, diet and lifestyle (including exercise). In addition to building and maintaining bones and joints, calcium aids in enzyme activity which includes the contraction of muscles, the release of neurotransmitters (nerve function), the regulation of the heart beat and clotting of the blood. It also helps to prevent high blood pressure, which can be a serious problem for some people.

Because the body can't produce calcium, it is important that we do a few things to ensure our calcium levels are managed. If you do not ingest enough calcium, your body will take it from your bones and teeth, which will eventually cause porous bones, osteoporosis, and/or arthritis. Ensuring we eat a balanced diet, ensuring regular exercise, maintaining a healthy lifestyle and ingesting what would be considered an adequate per day intake of calcium can go along way in assisting you with healthier bones, teeth, and joints.

Features and Benefits

Just Like our Vita4Life! multi-vitamin and our protein products, we use only the highest quality ingredients in our calcium. We believe that calcium combined with citrate (Carbon, Oxygen, Hydrogen & Water) boron and vitamin D - offers your system the highest percentage of absorption available in the marketplace today. Our calcium comes in capsule form and is made to dissolve within five (5) minutes of ingestion. This allows for the most opportunity for digestion, and over-all absorption.

Citrate - Calcium citrate has long been known as the top quality compound available for maximum absorption of calcium.

Boron - Studies indicate that boron improves calcium metabolism and utilization. The main dietary sources for obtaining boron are fruits and vegetables. Natural sources of boron include black beans, spinach, tomatoes, peaches, apricots, strawberries, apples, and cantaloupe. The level of boron in each item is based on the level of boron found in the soil where they are grown. Boron has been found to have positive results in postmenopausal women in areas of prevention and reduction of osteoporosis and arthritis. It can enhance, as well as mimic the effects estrogen produces on calcium metabolism. It also assists in activating vitamin D to its most active form.

Vitamin D - Vitamin D is best known for its ability to aid the absorption of calcium. It also exerts many anti-cancer properties, especially against breast and colon cancer.
