PRODUCT RESEARCH / SAFETY
Remember when you were young, parents forced you to drink milk, saying it will make you taller? There is no doubt that calcium, which comprises a large component of bone, helps in the development of bone and teeth. Having enough calcium will ensure children meet the nutritional and mineral requirements needed for growth. What has been overlooked is how you will maintain your existing and/or newly grown bones and teeth for the rest of your lives.
Osteoporosis, one of many bone diseases which jeopardize our bone health, causes bone quantity and quality to reduce, eventually leading to and increasing the risk of bone fracture. With an evermore increasing number of patients suffering from this disease, it is time that you start worrying about you and your family’s bone maintenance. Osteoporosis Canada statistics show that osteoporosis: can strike at any age, both men and women. Over 80% of all fractures in people 50+ are caused by osteoporosis. What is more shocking is the fact that at least 1/3 of women and 1/5 of men will suffer from osteoporosis in their lifetime.
So how do we protect our bones?
health canada approves that calcium, magnesium and vitamin d help in the development and maintenance of bone and teeth. In addition, magnesium and vitamin d help the body absorb and utilize calcium. The importance of calcium to bone health is well recognized. However, adequate calcium intake alone is not enough to reduce the risk of osteoporosis and osteoporotic fracture. Research studies conducted around the world have suggested that without sufficient vitamin d, the body will not be able to absorb calcium as effectively.
