Active Ingredients & Mechanism

The formula combines a high dose of calcium with specific "co-factors" that ensure the calcium is effectively utilized by the body rather than just excreted. 


Calcium: The primary mineral for building and maintaining bone structure and strength.
Vitamin D3 (Cholecalciferol): Essential for the absorption of calcium from the digestive tract into the bloodstream.
Vitamin K2 (MK-7): Acts as a "traffic controller" for calcium, helping to direct it into the bones and teeth while preventing it from depositing in the arteries (vascular calcification).
Magnesium & Zinc: Co-factors that contribute to normal bone maintenance and protein synthesis. 


Usage & Administration


Preparation: Dissolve one tablet in a glass of water (approx. 200ml). Drink immediately once the effervescence has ceased.
Compatibility: Suitable for those who have difficulty swallowing large calcium tablets. 


Safety & Restrictions


Consultation: It is advisable to consult with a healthcare professional if you have a history of kidney stones or impaired kidney function.
Interactions: Calcium can interfere with the absorption of certain antibiotics and heart medications; it is recommended to take these at least 2 hours apart.
Dietary Notes: Most versions are suitable for vegetarians and are gluten-free
