Product overview Your bones are dynamic living tissue and just like the rest of your body, they have nutritional needs to keep them strong and healthy. Doctor's Best Calcium Bone Maker Complex delivers key nutrition in their most bioactive forms to support these innate processes of maintenance, renewal and repair of your bones. It has been carefully designed to provide just enough calcium that the body can utilise, without oversupplying it. Scientifically advanced bone health support Broad spectrum nutrition to support healthy bone growth, repair and renewal. Supports bone matrix formation with microcrystalline hydroxyapatite, a rich source of bone building nutrients. Generous serving of Vitamin D an essential vitamin for strong, healthy bones supporting the uptake of calcium. Supplies highly bioactive Vitamin K2 (as VitaMK7™) to support the uptake of calcium into bone and not soft tissue. Why bone health requires complex nutrition There is more to bone health than calcium alone. Bone is made of a connective tissue matrix composed of collagen molecules woven through with smaller protein and glycosaminoglycan (protein-carbohydrate) molecules that form a rigid structure into which bone-building minerals can be taken up. Calcium mineralisation of bone can only occur if this preformed connective tissue matrix is in place. Doctor's Best Calcium Bone Maker Complex supplies a very similarly composed, semi-assembled collagen web in the form of microcrystalline hydroxyapatite complex derived from whole bone extract. Calcium uptake in the body is dependent on Vitamin D for its absorption into the body, and on Vitamin K which helps direct calcium to the bone matrix, rather than into soft tissue. In this way, the synergistic blend of nutrients also supports cardiovascular health in addition to musculoskeletal strength. Together with the trace minerals Zinc, Copper, Manganese and Boron involved in the formation of the bone matrix, plus Potassium and Magnesium involved in calcium metabolism, the synergistic blend provides complete support for healthy bone mineral density. What is MCH-Cal™? MCH-Cal™, or Microcrystalline Hydroxyapatite Calcium, is a special bone extract that includes collagen, bone matrix proteins and bone growth factors that support bone growth and renewal, as well as calcium and other minerals required as building blocks for the bone matrix.
