BONE GUARDIAN is a unique formulation of minerals, vitamins, and cofactors needed by the body in order to build and repair strong bones and joints. This advanced formula includes calcium (from hydroxyapatite), magnesium, zinc, boron, manganese, copper, strontium, silica, Vitamin C, Vitamin D3, Vitamin K1, and chondroitin sulfate complex.
NUTRITIONAL CONSIDERATIONS
AND APPLICATIONS
The health of bones and joints depends on a wide range of nutrients in addition to calcium. These other nutrients have been shown through extensive research to work synergistically with calcium to reverse bone loss.
Bone Guardian is especially useful to regulate calcium balance (for example, in protocols for the treatment of osteoporosis) and can be used in cases where bones and joints have been injured or are undergoing excessive stress (for example, in strenuous athletic activity) or degradation.
The calcium source hydroxyapatite in Bone Guardian is derived from pure, freeze-dried New Zealand veal bone, and contains calcium and phosphorus in a 2:1 ratio, as well as all other natural constituents of bone. Studies using hydroxyapatite show that it substantially reverses the bone loss process.
In studies of post-menopausal women, 3 mg per day of the mineral boron was shown to significantly increase (about twofold) both estrogen and testosterone levels, as well as greatly reduce the loss of calcium and magnesium from the body. Many people using Bone Guardian have reported rapid fingernail growth after several months.
BONE GUARDIAN will be most effective when used in conjunction with core nutritional formulas, which include a full-spectrum multivitamin (Multi Two), a Vitamin C formula (e.g., PRO-C™), and an essential fatty acid formula (e.g., Omega Plus). Specific-condition formulas that work well with Bone Guardian to build healthy bone, collagen, and connective tissues include Joint Health Formula, Ipriflavone Plus, MSM, Ocean Minerals Magnesium Oil, Ancient Minerals Magnesium Oil, and any of our Vitamin C formulas, including PRO-C™. In particular, Vitamin C helps to build and maintain collagen tissues, and will be of great value in a nutritional program designed to create powerful health for bones and joints. You can easily create an effective program by starting with the core nutrient formulas and then adding appropriate specific-condition formulas that meet your needs.
Note: For vegans and vegetarians we offer our Cal/Mag Plus (100% vegetarian tablet) or Bone Jour! (which is a vegetarian formula, except for the capsule that may be opened and discarded).
