PRODUCT DISCUSSION
Calcium is the major mineral responsible for the health of the body's
bones and teeth. Calcium intake is critical to achieving peak bone mass,
maintaining muscle contractions, nerve impulses and supporting heart
health. This unique formula contains Calcium Citrate, one of the most
bioavailable sources of Calcium, with chelated Magnesium for additional
support of bone health.
STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION
Calcium is an essential nutrient compromising 2% of adult body weight.
More than 99% of the body's Calcium is found in the skeleton,
representing 25% of the dry weight of bones. Calcium reacts with
phosphoric acid to form insoluble salts whose primary function is to
provide rigidity to the skeleton. In addition, the Calcium salts are
required to maintain a critical Calcium concentration in extra-cellular
water, which is necessary for support of the heart, neuromuscular
system, and enzymatic reactions.
Bone is a dynamic tissue, going through a continuous process of
formation and absorption. Calcium accumulates in the skeleton during
childhood until maturity when equilibrium is reached. During midlife the
body acquires the Calcium it needs by slowly absorbing bone. Adequate
Calcium intake during adolescence and adulthood is crucial to achieve
optimal bone mass.
Many factors contribute to the development of osteoporosis including
sex, race, age, and hormonal status. Even your body type, family
history, Calcium intake, and how often you exercise can have an impact.
Some populations, especially Caucasian women of northern European
ancestry and Asian women in their bone forming years (teens and young
adults) have a higher risk of developing osteoporosis. Women going
through menopause, those with a family history of the disease and the
elderly are also at a higher risk. American women of African heritage
have the lowest incidence of osteoporotic fracture.
It's important to remember that everyone loses bone mass with age.
Regular exercise, a healthy diet and adequate Calcium intake helps
maintain good bone health and may reduce the high risk of osteoporosis
later in life, especially for teens and young adult Caucasian and Asian
women. A total dietary intake above 2,000 mg has no further known
benefit to bone health.
Magnesium also plays an important role in bone health. The human
skeleton utilizes 55% of the body's Magnesium. Magnesium aids in the
absorption of Calcium by promoting the secretion of calcitonin, a
hormone that aids in the influx of calcium into bone. In addition,
Magnesium modulates the secretion of parathyroid hormone, whose function
is to draw Calcium out of bones and deposit it in soft tissue.
INDICATIONS
Adequate Calcium intake during adolescence, adulthood and menopause is
crucial to achieve and maintain peak bone mass. According to the Third
National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES III), more than
50% of children, adults, and elderly Americans' dietary Calcium intakes
fail to meet recommended levels. In addition, certain regularly
prescribed drugs may cause Calcium and/or Magnesium depletions.
PhysioLogics' Calsorb® may be a desirable dietary supplement for clients
who want to promote bone mass and support overall bone health.
HOW CLIENTS MAY BENEFIT
Primary support of bone health begins during adolescence when the
skeleton is accruing its peak mass. The Food and Nutrition Board of the
Institute of Medicine issued a Dietary Reference Intake for Calcium to
1,300 mg per day for 9 to 18 year old girls, and 1000 mg for 19 to 50
year old women. Calcium supplementation during these formative years may
contribute to bone density in the future.
Optimize peak bone mass during all stages of life for a strong skeletal system in both men and women.
Provide extra Calcium normally obtained from bones required for proper muscle contraction and nerve function.
Magnesium aids in the absorption of Calcium into bone and is essential to maintain proper bone mineralization.
