More about Cytoplan's Bone Support supplement

Our Bone Support supplement is a multinutrient formulation specifically tailored for those who are concerned about bone health and bone mineral density. It provides calcium, magnesium, vitamins D and K and boron to support the maintenance of healthy bones.

Key nutrients in this bone health supplement:

• Provides Wholefood calcium, an organic multi-mineral seaweed product. Calcium is needed for the maintenance of normal bones
• Calcium helps to reduce the loss of bone mineral in post-menopausal women. Low bone mineral density is a risk factor for osteoporotic bone fractures
• 70% of the body’s magnesium is stored in bone. As magnesium is required for the maintenance of normal bone, it is also included in this supplement
• Magnesium also contributes to normal muscle function and protein synthesis
• Vitamin D contributes to the normal absorption and utilisation of calcium and phosphorus, and is therefore important for the maintenance of normal bones. We use vitamin D3 in our supplements as it is the most bioavailable form of this nutrient. Our vitamin D3 is from lichen and is therefore suitable for vegetarians and vegans
• Vitamin K is included as K2 (MK-7) - it is an important co-factor to proteins which are essential for the bone building process and therefore contributes to the maintenance of normal bones. It is also important to supplement vitamin K alongside vitamin D to ensure that calcium is deposited in bone rather than soft tissues
• The trace mineral boron is also included - this mineral supports the growth and maintenance of bone
