Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the human body, comprising over 1.5% of the total body weight. About 99% of the body’s calcium is found in the bones, with 1% occurring in the soft tissues. Calcium absorption is vitally dependent upon vitamin D.Taking one tablet of Bio-Calcium + D3 + K (equivalent to 500 mg calcium) per day is recommended for general well-being and two tablets (equivalent to 1000 mg) per day has been shown to give a therapeutic benefit.There are many calcium preparations on the market, however, Bio-Calcium is perfectly balanced to give optimum absorption. Bio-Calcium contains vitamins D and K which promote the absorption of calcium. Without vitamin D, the body cannot absorb calcium.There are many scientific papers that show the beneficial effects of Bio-Calcium, particularly in its use as a mineral for maintaining bones and teeth, helping prevent progressive bone loss and osteoporosis.
