Description
AOR Ortho Bone 300 Capsules:
Key ingredients to help develop and maintain health bones. Supports bone growth and bone density, while preventing bone loss.
Calcium from microcrystalline hydroxyapatite (MCHA) complex; an extract of bovine bone derived from New Zealand pasture-fed, free-range livestock.
Ortho Bone™ is a multi-vitamin and mineral formula providing nutrients that are fundamental for mineral deposition in bone and for regulating the excretion of minerals. These nutrients are very important for those with osteoporosis, osteopenia or a history of bone fractures.
Ortho Bone™ is unique because it supports bone growth. This is due to the key ingredient, a source of calcium called microcrystalline hydroxyapatite complex (MCHC), MCHC contains more than calcium: it contains all of the minerals and proteins found in bone, is rich in phosphorus, and provides growth factors that stimulate bone growth. It is digested more slowly in the stomach than typical calcium supplements, resulting in smaller spikes in blood calcium levels, which allows the calcium to be better absorbed into the bones.
Ortho Bone™ also provides vitamins C, D3, K2, B12 and folate, and minerals boron, magnesium, manganese, silicon, zinc and copper. Together, these ingredients help to promote bone health and may reduce the risk of osteoporosis and osteopenia.
The most effective forms of vitamins D and double micro-encapsulated vitamin K2 are found in Ortho Bone™, serving to enhance the body’s absorption and usage of calcium. Vitamin C and silicon support collagen production, which builds the framework for bone. Magnesium makes up a large part of the bone mineral matrix, while boron reduces magnesium loss, and trace minerals manganese, zinc and copper are co-factors for enzymes involved in bone metabolism. Vitamins B12 and folate help reduce homocysteine, a metabolic by-product that is thought to be toxic to bone fibers.
