Did you know that bone nutrition deficiency and thinning can occur without warning signs?  Did you know your bones grow and shrink every day depending on the daily consumption of calcium and nutrients? ¹ The body stores more than 99 percent of its calcium in the bones and teeth to help make and keep them strong. 2

Depletion of bone calcium without replenishing will lead to brittle bones and health problems like osteoporosis.  It is estimated that 1 in 3 women and 1 in 12 men over the age of 50 worldwide have osteoporosis.  In the United States, osteoporosis causes a predisposition to hip fractures -- more than 250,000 occur annually.

Over 1.5 million Americans suffer from broken bones every year due to osteoporosis.  Between 35-50% of all women over 50 had at least one vertebral fracture.3  It threatens an estimated 44 million American adults.

Bone lose due to natural aging can begin around 30 years of age and the natural daily loss of calcium in bones is compounded with age, osteoporosis, menopause in women, or other physical problems .4  The onset of menopause in women accelerates bone calcium loss due to decreasing estrogen levels which is an essential hormone for protecting the bones from osteoporosis.

Bone nutrition deficiency is silent and slow and can take time to remedy. Bone deposition (bone formation) is as timely a process.  Sufficient and correct calcium intake must be sustained daily to prevent or minimize daily bone loss. 5

FKC’s Response:
The scientists at FKC developed “CalciMagD” bone dietary supplement in a chewable, chocolate flavored tablet with a unique blend of vitamin D, magnesium and calcium for easy consumption and better absorption into the body.  

Vitamin D aids calcium in allowing it to be absorbed into the body through digestion.  Magnesium assists calcium storage in bones, helping metabolize bone formation.  FKC scientists recognized this significant synergistic effect between these 3 supplements and combined them with proper balance in CalciMagD to be more effective.

CalciMagD

• Provides a healthy dose of bio-available calcium to rebuild bones.
• Provides vitamin D to support absorption of calcium.
• Provides magnesium to support incorporation of calcium into the bones.
• Provides magnesium for energy production in all body cells.
• Helps reduce muscle cramps.
• Promotes muscle and body relaxation.
