In fact, every bone cell in our body is replaced once every three months. The formation of healthy bone requires the presence of more than 18 different essential nutrients and probably many more as yet unidentified as essential. That's why it is important to think of bone health as requiring a whole lot more than just calcium. It contains extremely well-utilized calcium, magnesium and a broad spectrum of trace minerals, plus boron, silica, and vitamin D2. Together, they comprise a superior foundation for good, stable bone health and overall well-being.
Magnesium plays a role in regulating calcium transport and utilization.
Magnesium supplementation has been shown to increase bone density in magnesium-deficient older persons. This formula's magnesium comes from fully-reacted chelates of malate, rice protein amino acids, plus oxide and ionic magnesium from sea water. Boron is a micronutrient thought to be required for the efficient metabolism and utilization of calcium, magnesium, vitamin D and phosphorus. It has been shown to influence bone mineral density of the hip. The low sodium Trace Mineral Complex in this product comes from concentrated, pure inland sea waters of the Great Salt Lake.
