Everyone knows that getting enough Calcium is important for bone health. However, what most don’t realize is that the body can only absorb this important mineral under certain conditions. Even some supplements are not easily absorbed by the body and therefore are not truly as beneficial as they could be. NutraCenter’s Custom Calcium Formula has been carefully formulated to provide easily absorbable Calcium to your body in its natural state. It is also combined with other key ingredients, such as Vitamin D and Magnesium that also aid in the efficient absorption and use of Calcium.

It is important to understand exactly why our bodies need Calcium. Did you know that Calcium is key in the body’s function of building of new bone throughout our lifetime?

Everyone needs Calcium for the regular growth and strength of healthy bones.  Your body is constantly removing old bone and replacing it with new, healthy bone. Not only does Calcium play a key role in encouraging bone health, but it is also very important in supporting the activity of many of your body’s enzymes.

Elderly women (post-menopausal) face a more critical need for higher levels of quality Calcium supplementation. Due to changes in hormone levels, their bones become increasingly brittle and they are at a higher risk for osteoporosis.

Children need Calcium because their bones are in the critical early stages of development and foundational growth.

Men also lose bone density as they age and although this issue is not perceived to be as great a threat as the onset of osteoporosis is for women, it is still very important for men to also begin supplementing with Calcium to maintain strong and healthy bones.

Younger women need additional calcium than so that they can build the strength of their bones over time and fight osteoporosis as they age. In addition, Calcium has been shown to reduce the irritability, cramping and bloating association with PMS.

Pregnant and lactating women (and their infants) can benefit from this mineral as it aids in the growth of new cells and provides the necessary nutrition for breast milk.

Those with cardio health issues need to supplement with Calcium, which has been shown to also support heart health.
