Properties
Calcium, phosphorus and magnesium are vital minerals for bone mineralization. Calcium of marine origin is better assimilated than calcium provided by limestone. Lithothamnion has been shown to increase bone renewal and mineralization after 112 days compared to calcium carbonate from limestone.
Calcium Pidolate is an organic calcium salt that will improve bone metabolism by increasing the absorption of calcium and phosphorus in the intestine and by promoting the synthesis of collagen and other proteins integrated into the bone structure. This would result in better bone strength and elasticity, two essential criteria for limiting the risk of fractures.
MSM also possesses chondroprotective properties. It is a source of organic sulphur which is indispensable to the synthesis of collagen, an abundant protein in cartilage and which gives it hydration, resistance, elasticity and suppleness.
Zinc, manganese and copper are provided in an easily absorbed form. These trace elements are associated with a number of enzymes which play important roles within the body in the formation of bone and cartilage.
Vitamin D3 participates in bone mineralization, playing a part in regulating the balance between phosphorus and calcium.
In horses, menadione (vitamin K3) has been demonstrated to be the only patented vitamin K that increases the plasma concentration of menaquinone-4, the most effective vitamin K form regulating bone metabolism. Vitamin K contributes to increasing bone volume and strength by stimulating bone formation and reducing bone resorption.
Precautions for use
Due to the presence of high levels of vitamins and trace elements, respect the recommendations.
