What’s in Bone Smart?
It’s a vegetable-based bone supplement capsule providing:
Vitamin K2 (as Menaquinone 7-Natto) – essential for the formation of osteocalcin, which when supported by vitamin K supports the binding of calcium to the bone.
Calcium – an essential mineral for bones. The body cannot produce calcium, so it must absorb it through food and/or supplements.
Vitamin D3 ‒ required by bones to absorb calcium, which is essential for good bone health and growth.
Magnesium – an essential mineral for absorbing and metabolising calcium. Around 50% of the body’s magnesium intake is stored in the bones.
Vitamin B6 – studies havve shown that low intake of Vitamin B6 may contribute to increased bone loss in older people.
Vitamin B12 – vital for production of red blood cells. Low intake is associated with increased risk of bone fractures.
Folic acid – thought to slow down the rate of bone loss and reduce the risk of osteoporosis in two major studies, published in the New England Journal of Medicine.
Copper – an essential trace mineral that helps to build bone, with around 20% of the body’s copper found in the skeleton.
Zinc – a vital bone nutrient without which your bones cannot maintain themselves.
Selenium – important as deficiency is now associated with reduced bone mass and osteoporosis.
Boron – supports metabolic function for calcium, magnesium and vitamin D.
All in one bone supplement.
