Description
Vitabiotics Osteocare is now available as a convenient, great tasting peppermint and orange flavoured chewable tablet, to help keep your bones strong and healthy.
Osteocare Chewable contains an advanced formula providing key nutrients for bone health, including calcium, magnesium, and Vitamin D3, plus co-factors to help maintain bone renewal. Osteocare Chewable is a convenient alternative to normal tablets and is suitable for men and women of all ages, as well as children over 4 years of age.
The number one calcium supplement in the UK, the original Osteocare tablet formula has been developed by leading doctors and pharmacists. The well-balanced formula provides a rich source of calcium with co-factors to help maintain strong bones and teeth, as well as the health of the heart, muscles, and nerves. The formula includes the full-recommended daily allowances of calcium and magnesium, which play a vital role in bone development, along with vitamin D and zinc.
Vitamin D contributes to normal bone growth and development by helping the bones absorb calcium. It is also responsible for bone mineralisation and producing the hormones which maintain healthy levels of calcium and phosphorus levels in the bones and bloodstream.
Osteocare contains the preferred D3 form of Vitamin D. Vitamin D3, also known as cholecalciferol, is the form of vitamin D that is produced by the action of sunlight (UVB ultraviolet radiation) on a cholesterol-like molecule present in the skin. D3 is the preferred form of vitamin D because it is the specific form made in the human body and therefore more effective than D2 which is found in some supplements .
Osteocare also contains zinc to help in the constant regeneration of bone and to help maintain healthy muscles and nerves.
