Question 1

What sources of calcium does Bone Formula provide?

Accepted Answer

Bone Formula blends three excellent sources of calcium (lithothamnion, calcium malate, and calcium ascorbate). Lithothamnion is a new exciting source of calcium derived from mineralized seaweed that can only be found in certain sub-oceanic locations throughout the world. During its life cycle, this unique seaweed absorbs nutrients from the clear, cold, pollution free, mineral-rich Atlantic waters. This all- natural plant source of minerals contains important levels of key bone nutrients such as calcium and magnesium. Calcium malate and calcium ascorbate provide complementary sources of calcium that are bioavailable and well tolerated. Calcium supplementation can promote healthy bone formation in young adults and support healthy bone integrity in the elderly.

Question 2

What is the role of vitamin K2 in Bone Formula?

Accepted Answer

Bone formula delivers a special form of vitamin K as menaquinone, or vitamin K2. Studies have shown that K2 is more active than vitamin K1 in maintaining bone health. Vitamin K2 also delivers cardiovascular benefits, a benefit not found in regular vitamin K1. A recent study investigated the effects of vitamin K1 as compared to vitamin K2 in two European populations; the group that consumed vitamin K2 showed bone health benefits that continue to increase throughout the study, whereas the efficacy of K1 plateaued within a few days.

Question 3

Why is vitamin D included in Bone Formula?

Accepted Answer

The role of vitamin D in calcium and bone metabolism is well established. There are number of clinical trials documenting the benefits of supplemental vitamin D for maintaining normal bone health and calcium metabolism, especially in the elderly. Although vitamin D is produced in the skin upon sunlight exposure, marginal vitamin D status is common– especially in the elderly living in the northern latitudes of the U.S and Canada. As a result, vitamin D supplementation from multivitamins in the amount of 400 IU daily is recommended.

Question 4

What is the role of magnesium in Bone Formula?

Accepted Answer

Magnesium is the second most abundant bone mineral and appears to be as important for bone health as calcium, especially as marginal or inadequate magnesium intake is significant concern in the U.S. Magnesium is involved in the regulation of calcium transport and metabolism and, as such, assumes a key role in bone formation.
