LIF Natural Calcium 120C
Calcium is an important mineral essential to our health. It is a key component of healthy bone and teeth and also important for most other cells in the body including the nervous system and heart.
The human skeleton is actually renewed every 7 years. So getting adequate calcium on a daily basis is vital. If our diet is defient in calcium, the body will take calcium out of the bones for other important functions. This can lead to weak, brittle bones and easy breaks and fractures later in life.
Who needs extra calcium?
- Anyone not eating enough calcium rich foods
- Those allergic to dairy products - they're a big source of calcium
- Individuals doing intense training regularly
- Pregnant and breastfeeding women
- Those who smoke and/or drink alot - as it reduces calcium absorption
How bioavailable is this natural calcium?
Research comparing the absorption of Lithothamnium calcareum (where Lifestream Organic Calcium is sourced from) and calcium carbonate found greater biovailability of the former. Lithothamnium calcareum showed higher calciuric levels and also lower levels of parathyroid hormone (this hormone increases when blood calcium levels get low). This indicates higher bioavailability of Lithothamnium calcareum.*
Another study showed that of the three forms of calcium tested, Lithothamnium calcareum had the best digestive solubility.**
Lifestream Organic Calcium has a unique porous structure, a large molecule size and contains other synergistic minerals to enhance its absorption and utilisation by the body.
Lifestream Organic Calcium Supports:
- Bone, nail and teeth health
- Healthy bone density and structure
- Healthy muscle function
What about the 2:1 Calcium to Magnesium Ratio?
Foods in their natural state do not contain these two minerals in this set ratio, breastmilk has a ratio of 10:1 calcium to magnesium and many traditional cultures have had very strong, healthy bones without relying on this ratio.
