Bone Health Support
Osteo-Support contains nutrients you need to help support normal bone health.
It includes 1,200 mg of calcium, 200 IU of vitamin D, 200 mg of ipriflavone
from Ostivone, and numerous other nutrients.
Calcium for Strong Bones
Vitabase Osteo-Support provides needed calcium for strong bones. According to
the National Institutes of Health, it is not unusual for many individuals to
consume less than half the calcium they need for building and maintaining
healthy bones. Heavy use of caffeine, such as in coffee, of sodium phosphates
found in carbonated drinks, and of alcohol can cause drops in the calcium the
body retains.
To function properly, calcium must be accompanied by several other
nutrients including vitamins A, C, D, and K; phosphorus; and magnesium.
Ipriflavone
Osteo-Support also includes 200 mg of ipriflavone, a synthetic derivative of
genistein or daidzein. Genistein and daidzein are isoflavones (natural plant
components that have antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antiallergic
properties).
Research studies have shown positive results from ipriflavone
supplementation in maintaining or increasing bone mineral density, particularly
when combined with a calcium supplement. In studies, ipriflavone was shown to
have potential to prevent rapid bone loss after menopause, to increase bone
density in postmenopausal women, to decrease bone fracturing, and to relieve
bone pain from osteoporosis. Further studies are needed before specific health
benefits can be established.
Other Ingredients Support Bone Health
Vitamin D is necessary for growth and utilized in the digestive
tract to aid in the absorption and use of calcium and phosphorus.
The body needs small amounts of boron for healthy bones and works
synergistically to metabolize calcium, phosphorus, and magnesium. In
postmenopausal women, boron helps prevent osteoporosis and
build muscle.
Copper aids in the formation of bones.
Horsetail is a natural ingredient packed with minerals,
particularly silica. Silica is vital for the body's absorption of calcium.
Current studies indicate that women approaching menopause who
increase their intake of soy isoflavones have significantly
higher bone-mineral density. Japanese women with diets rich in soy isoflavones
had greater bone-mineral density than those with diets low in soy isoflavones.
More study is needed before specific health benefits can be established.
Osteo-Support provides all these ingredients for strong bones in
one convenient product. With 120 percent of the recommended daily allowance of
calcium plus Ostivone, you will be well on your way to maintaining healthy
bones.
