Calcium Supplements
Bioavailable calcium is essential for bone health; however, bone is complex living tissue that, like other body tissues, has a wide range of nutritional needs. The Osteo-Mins formulas were developed and formulated by Jonathan V. Wright, M.D., author of Nutrition and Healing. In addition to calcium these formulas supply strontium, boron, silicon and other vitamins and trace minerals researched to support bone growth.* The Osteo-Mins AM formula containing strontium, zinc, selenium, copper, manganese, molybdenum, boron and silicon is taken in the morning. The Osteo-Mins PM formula containing calcium, magnesium, vitamin D (or vitamins D and K) are taken at bedtime.Many researchers feel when these nutrients are taken at different times during the day, assimilation of all nutrients is improved.  Suggested Use Eight capsules daily in the PM, or as directed by a health care professional.  Serving Size: 8 Capsule  Servings Per Container: 30  Amount Per Serving % Daily Value Vitamin D3 (as cholecalciferol from fish liver oil) 1000 IU 250% Calcium (as calcium citrate) 1000 mg 100% Magnesium (as magnesium citrate) 300 mg 75%  Other Ingredients: gelatin, rice flour, vegetable lubricant  Warnings Pregnant and/or lactating women should consult their physician prior to use.Tamper evident band around cap and seal on bottle.

Nearly two percent of the human body is made up of calcium. It is the most abundant mineral in the human body because strong bones are mostly made of it. However, the bones are not the only body part that benefits from calcium. A good number of enzymes are dependent upon calcium for proper functioning. Calcium aids in blood coagulation and the correct functioning of the heart and nervous system. Sadly, many people are deficient in calcium, and this causes the body to rob the bones, leading to osteoporosis. For excellent overall health, it is wise to use calcium supplements combined with vitamin D, which facilitates good calcium absorption.
Calcium can be beneficial in treating symptoms of pre-menstrual syndrome (PMS), and it is also helpful in treating pain during menstruation. It is also believed that pregnant women should receive the correct amount of calcium supplementation to help ward off the possibility of preeclampsia. Some studies have shown it to help treat disorders such as migraine headaches and attention deficit. Proper levels of calcium also help prevent a variety of cancers. This is especially true for women during and after menopause who also benefit from calcium supplementation to help prevent osteoporosis.
Naturally, calcium helps prevent bone loss and maintain healthy teeth. It is essential to understand that mega-doses of calcium are neither necessary nor desirable. The body can only absorb a maximum of 500 milligrams of calcium at a time, so it is best to supplement with this amount along with vitamin D and eat a diet rich in calcium. Some of the best natural sources of calcium include dairy products, sardines, tofu, calcium-fortified cereals, and green, leafy vegetables. Vita Living provides an excellent assortment of calcium and vitamin D dietary supplements.
