According to the U.S. Surgeon General, "by 2020, half of all American citizens over 50 will be at risk for fractures from osteoporosis and low bone mass if no immediate action is taken." CalciumEssentials provides one of the most absorbable forms of Calcium plus other complementary nutrients to help prevent bone loss.

LactoCalcium® provides Calcium, plus the minerals Phosphorus and Magnesium, entirely food-based from milk to ensure better bone mineralization. Milk is one of the richest and most bioavailable sources of Calcium and other bone-supporting minerals. CalciumEssentials derives 50% of its Calcium from this all-natural "super-absorbable" milk Calcium that helps prevent bone loss.

Calcium Citrate is more absorbable than other common forms of Calcium. Minerals like Calcium Citrate, are ionic compounds and better absorbed in acidic environments. As such, it can be taken anytime during the day, even on an empty stomach.

Low serum levels of Magnesium have been found to result in low serum levels of Calcium, which affects proper bone growth. Vitamin D, a fat-soluble vitamin, assists with Calcium absorption from the digestive tract. Together, Magnesium, vitamin D and natural Phosphorus from milk enhance the absorption of calcium and provide the natural co-factors needed for strong bones.

CalciumEssentials is potency-enhanced with Futurebiotics BioAccelerators™. Clinically-proven BioPerine® (piper nigrum extract) improves nutrient bioavailability, while their proprietary natural compound of Ginger extract, Trikatu, super-potent Digezyme® and Lactospore® boosts digestion and absorption.
