What it does:
Blackmores Total Calcium Plus Magnesium aids in the prevention of calcium deficiency states including osteoporosis. A lack of calcium in the diet could lead to osteoporosis and its consequences - weak and brittle bones.
Calcium is responsible for much of the strength of bones and teeth, with calcium phosphate forming the structural basis of the skeleton. It is also involved in a variety of body processes, including muscle and nerve function and iron metabolism. If dietary calcium is low, the body may take the calcium it needs from the bones, leading to brittle bones and possibly osteoporosis (a reduction in bone density)
Blackmores Total Calcium Plus Magnesium is a combination formula of calcium, magnesium and Vitamin D3 to prevent osteoporosis, manage calcium deficiency, support bone and muscle health plus maintain general wellbeing.
Blackmores Total Calcium Magnesium + D3 has been specially developed with 3 different forms of calcium compounds - calcium citrate, calcium phosphate and calcium amino acid chelate. It also contains magnesium, Vitamin D3, Vitamin K1 and minerals.
Taking calcium may assist in the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis and also promote healthy bones. Vitamin D3, vitamin K1 and minerals can aid the absorption and function of calcium. Magnesium helps support healthy muscle and nerve function and is also essential for bone health.
- A comprehensive formula with 3 different forms of calcium compounds - calcium citrate, calcium phosphate and calcium amino acid chelate plus magnesium, Vitamin D3 and K1
- May help prevent osteoporosis
- Improves the absorption and function of calcium
- Helps maintain healthy bones
- Manages calcium deficiency
- Supports general health and wellbeing
Three different forms of calcium are combined with added co-factors vitamins D3, K1 and the mineral magnesium to increase absorption and function of calcium. Contains phosphate ions which are an integral part of the bone matrix. Vitamin D helps maintain serum calcium and phosphate levels and increases the active absorption of calcium ions in the intestine to increase mineralisation of bone. Zinc is important for the calcification of bone. Vitamin C is involved in the production of collagen, elastin and other constituents of the musculo-skeletal system. Other important nutrients for calcium uptake and utilisation are also included in Total Calcium for improved efficacy.
