three forms of calcium and the essential vitamins, minerals and other
ingredients to build and keep healthy bones.
BoneMate
Plus contains:
Calcium
- is the major building block of bones and teeth. Three different forms of
calcium are in this formulation. This ensures the best calcium absorption by
the body.
Magnesium - is a key mineral for
maintaining bone tissue. The body makes use of magnesium in its metabolism of
calcium. It also serves as an important structural mineral for our bone
tissue.
Vitamin D - is essential for absorption
of calcium from the gastrointestinal tract and is used for building bone mass
and maintaining bone tissue. Newer research has shown Vitamin D deficiency is
common especially as we age. This formula contains 2000 IU of vitamin D
Vitamin K - is found in leafy vegetables.
The primary symptoms associated with adequate vitamin K levels are strong
bones and healthy circulation. Vitamin K has also been linked to a healthy
cardiovascular system.
Vitamin C & Bioflavonoids - work
closely together to produce the effects that they have on the immune system.
Vitamin C is an essential co-factor for the synthesis of collagen, a
structural protein in bone tissue.Vitamin C is widely known as a powerful
antioxidant as well as an effective cell protector and immunity booster.
Trace Minerals - boron, zinc,manganese
and copper are all trace minerals that is distributed throughout the human
body and are necessary for good bone health.

Q.
If I take this product, but I don't do any kind of exercise, will it still
help me?
A.
The BoneMate® Plus formulation is meant to aid in the deposition of calcium
into bone regardless of physical exercise, however, overall health and well
being is dependant upon a healthy diet and exercise regimen.
In late July 2010 the British Medical
Journal published a study called a "meta analysis". That means they analyzed
the results of 11 studies, combined these studies and came to the conclusion
that taking calcium supplementation of at least 500 mgm a day without Vitamin
D was associated with a 30% increase in the risk of heart attacks and a
smaller, insignificant increase in the chance of a stroke.
BoneMate Plus has combined
Vitamin D into the formula. There is other data and studies that show Vitamin
D may have a protective effect on the heart.
