Summit Nutritionals - Bone Builder

Calcium & Magnesium plus Ipriflavone

Osteoporosis is a condition in which bones become weak and brittle. Millions of American women are afflicted with this condition, and it is on the increase. This sophisticated formulation combines nutrients usually found in two or more supplements. It has been developed to make it easier for you to realize the potential benefits of these vital nutrients that can impact a woman's overall health.

Calcium helps replenish bone cells that are lost naturally during the aging process. Bone-strengthening calcium is included in three different forms to make it the most bioavailable possible. The trace minerals zinc, copper, and manganese are included due to their roles in building connective tissues and bone. The bone-building soy-derivative, ipriflavone, is added to enhance the effects of the minerals included in this formulation. It also helps to maintain bone mass, and stimulates the production of new bone cells.

We also include boron, which a study by the USDA has shown to help maintain bone density in post-menopausal women. Calcium absorption is greatly enhanced by the action of the glucose polymers. There is no vitamin D in this formula since our Daily Plus contains the Recommended Daily Allowance for this vitamin, and an excessive dosage of vitamin D is unhealthy.
