How does Calcifood Powder help support bones?
Approximately 99 percent of the body’s total calcium store resides in the bones.1 While bone acts as a calcium depot for the body, the skeleton is an active and dynamic player in whole body health, especially as we age.2 During periods of rapid growth, such as infancy and adolescence, new bone formation occurs as calcium deposition is greater than resorption of calcium, resulting in peak bone density around age 30. In older adults, calcium resorption outpaces deposition, especially in postmenopausal women.3 The veal bone whole food ingredient in Calcifood Powder contributes complex vital nutrition to help keep bones healthy.*
How does calcium support optimal health?
A great percentage of the population fails to acquire adequate amounts of calcium from the daily diet.4 Calcifood Powder contains ingredients sourced from whole foods like carrot, defatted wheat germ, dates, rice bran, veal bone, and bovine bone for their nutritional complexity and support of calcium absorption and use by the body. Calcium is essential for bones as a component of bone mineralization and for the body in general because bones are calcium depots for bodywide use.5 Calcium is an essential component of bone health, and inadequate intake of calcium may change bone mineral density, particularly in older adults.
