A superior form of calcium with MCHA complex. Provides active and effective forms of key bone health nutrients. Improves bone growth and density while reducing bone loss. Proven to generate lower peaks of calcium in the blood compared to other types of calcium supplements. Unparalleled comprehensive bone health formula, exclusively offered by AOR. Ortho Bone® is an advanced bone health formula providing nutrients essential for depositing minerals in bones and regulating their excretion. These nutrients are very important for people with osteoporosis, osteopenia, or those who have suffered a bone fracture. Ortho Bone® is unique because it not only helps reduce bone loss, but also maintains or even increases bone growth, something most calcium supplements are unable to do. This is thanks to the key ingredient, microcrystalline hydroxyapatite complex (MCHC), which is a superior source of calcium derived from New Zealand cattle bone. MCHC is not just calcium; it contains all the minerals and proteins found in bones, is rich in phosphorus, and provides growth factors that stimulate bone growth. It is digested more slowly in the stomach than typical calcium supplements, resulting in lower peaks of calcium in the blood and allowing calcium to be better absorbed by bones. Ortho Bone® also provides vitamins C, D3, K2, B12, and folate, as well as boron, magnesium, manganese, silicon, zinc, and copper. The combination of these ingredients makes for one of the best formulas available to promote bone health and prevent osteoporosis and osteopenia. Ortho Bone® contains the most effective forms of vitamins D and K2, proven to help improve the body's absorption and utilization of calcium. Vitamin C and silicon support the production of collagen, a fundamental building block of bone. Magnesium makes up a large part of the bone mineral matrix, while boron reduces magnesium loss. Trace minerals zinc, manganese, and copper are cofactors for enzymes involved in bone metabolism. Vitamins B12 and folate help reduce homocysteine, a metabolic byproduct thought to be toxic to bone fibers. Ortho Bone® is an attractive bone health product for true bone health support, with a dose of 10 capsules per day for 1,000 mg of elemental calcium. People with osteoporosis or osteopenia, postmenopausal women, and the elderly in general are those who will benefit most from taking Ortho Bone. AOR's Ortho Bone® contains not just calcium, but all the key ingredients in the right doses and the most effective forms for maintaining optimal bone health and reducing bone loss. That's why 10 capsules a day provide you with the required daily dose of calcium. The MCHC used as a source of calcium in Ortho Bone® also contains growth factors and proteins. That's why this product can stimulate bone development rather than simply reducing calcium loss.
Adults: Take up to 10 capsules daily with meals or as directed by a healthcare professional. Take a few hours before or after taking other medications.
