Did you know that you need more than just calcium to build strong healthy bones?

And did you know that the bone in your body is reformed about every 10 years1?

This process is regulated by Osteoblasts, the cells that build up your skeleton and Osteoclasts, the cells that break down your skeleton. As long as the bone building activity of Osteoblasts exceeds the destructive action of Osteoclasts, the process of maintaining healthy bone is kept under control. In order for your body to build the bone structure, Osteoblasts produce a Vitamin K2 dependent protein called Osteocalcin. Osteocalcin binds calcium from your diet to your bone matrix helping to build healthy bones. Vitamin K2 helps maintain bone strength and may help support and maintain bone mineral density.

Bone building nutrients work and belong together.

Vitamin K2 naturally complements calcium as they work together as part of a team. You may take a calcium supplement to maintain the health of your bones. However a key additional vitamin for your bone health is Vitamin K2. While calcium is essential for good bone health, Vitamin K2 is also a co-factor in helping to maintain bone health.

As we know the major use of calcium in your body is in your skeleton. You need calcium to help keep up the constant repair and rebuilding of your bones. However calcium does not function in isolation and it’s important to also maintain your intake of Vitamin K2. So if you want a quality vitamin, which may help your body build healthy bones, try Caruso’s Vitamin K2 today.

 

Always read the label and use only as directed. If symptoms persist consult your Healthcare Professional. Vitamin supplements should not replace a balanced diet. Vitamin supplements may only be of assistance if dietary intakes are inadequate.
