Product description
Calcium is a mineral that is mainly found in dairy products, green vegetables and grain products. You can think of products such as cheese, wholemeal bread or spinach. Calcium is important for building and maintaining your bones and teeth.
Calcium absorption
Calcium carbonate is a commonly used form in calcium supplements. It is often recommended in combination with vitamin D. Vitamin D can increase the absorption of calcium from the gut. Vitamin D stimulates the production of a transport protein in the intestines, so that more calcium is absorbed and bone health can be supported. Therefore, it is recommended to get enough vitamin D when taking calcium supplements so that the body can take full advantage of the benefits of calcium.
Bones
Bone is living tissue. It is constantly being built up and broken down. Until the thirtieth year, the build-up is greater than the breakdown, so that the bone becomes stronger and grows. After the age of 35, the breakdown gradually exceeds the build-up, making the bones less solid. This in itself is not such a problem if the maximum bone mass has been built up and there are therefore healthy, firm bones.
Calcium is also indispensable for young people because the 'growth' requires a lot of calcium from the body. The elderly also do well to use extra calcium. But to achieve good bone formation, even more substances are needed.
Strong combination
Pure Life Calcium contains not only calcium and vitamin D, but also vitamin C and various minerals, such as copper, zinc, manganese and selenium. This strong combination ensures an optimal interaction in this calcium supplement.
The added Vitamin C plays a role in the production / construction of cartilage, for the maintenance of healthy cartilage and for the maintenance of strong bones. Manganese is necessary for the formation of bone tissue. Furthermore, manganese is involved in the metabolism of amino acids, cholesterol and carbohydrates. Copper ensures that iron is captured in hemoglobin, the red pigment in our blood, and thus plays a role in oxygen transport in the body. Copper is also involved in the pigmentation of skin and hair and in connective tissue and bone formation.
