Whole Food
Calcium
Evidence suggests that calcium from whole food sources may produce more
favorable effects in bone health than isolated calcium supplements.* Similar to
most nutrients, the body can utilize calcium much more effectively when it is
paired with its natural co-factors such as magnesium and other trace minerals.
New Chapter is proud to deliver a calcium complex derived from whole
food that delivers these key essential nutrients in their safest, most active
form within the infinite complexity of whole food.
The most common form of calcium supplement today is derived from limestone.
You don’t eat rocks as part of your balanced diet, why would you choose to
supplement your bone health nutritional needs with limestone?
Our bodies understand and seek whole food sources of nutrition, not rocks,
which is why New Chapter formulated this product with a whole food plant
source of this important nutrient complex. As whole food, it’s easy on the
digestive system.
The calcium complex in Bone Strength Take Care is derived from a
special form of plant called Algas Calcareas (AlgaeCal) that is harvested from
the pristine shores of a protected national reserve park in South America. Much
like the vegetables from an organic garden, the algae is harvested live and then
cold processed to retain its nutritional value.
Calcium must be completely dissolved in order to be absorbed. The plant-based
calcium found in Bone Strength Take Care is porous, which dramatically
increases the calcium’s surface area. Stomach acid can then come into greater
contact with the calcium, making it easy to dissolve.
In addition to the whole-food source of calcium and magnesium, we have also
added other bone-nourishing nutrients to complete the food complex.
Vitamin K is an essential co-factor in calcium absorption and retention.
Human cell proteins that don’t get enough Vitamin K can’t hold onto calcium,
causing this critical nutrient to drift away from the bone. Vitamin K2 (MK-7),
sourced from fermented whole food, gently redirects “lost” calcium back into the
bone bank.
Vitamin D3 completes the complex. Numerous studies have found that Vitamin D
aids bone support and function.
