Supplement Facts
At Nutreance, safety and effectiveness are paramount in our mission to provide you with innovative natural remedies. That's why Calciven has been carefully formulated using only the most effective natural ingredients with the highest safety ratings, according to extensive clinical research.
But it's not enough to simply combine dietary supplements recommended by scientific studies into a formula. The quality of the ingredients that make up any natural remedy are critical to its overall efficacy.
Just as you can buy fresh fruits or vegetables from a farmer's market that are of much higher quality than at your local supermarket, not all ingredients are created equal. In the same way, you may be able to purchase the same ingredient from two different suppliers, but the purity and potency may be entirely different. For this reason, we thoroughly vet our raw material suppliers to ensure that our natural remedies are comprised of only the highest quality ingredients.
| Vitamin D3 (as cholecalciferol) | Vitamin D3, or cholecalciferol, is naturally produced by the body when your skin is exposed to UVB rays from sunlight but can also be absorbed through the digestive tract from food or as a dietary supplement. One of the primary roles of this compound is to increase uptake of calcium in the intestines, providing your body with optimal levels of this key mineral for healthy bones. In one clinical study from 2016, a combination therapy of calcium and vitamin D3 reduced total fractures by 15% and hip fractures by 30%.[1] |
| Calcium (as dicalcium malate) | Calcium is a chemical element and essential mineral that plays several crucial roles in the human body, one of which is the formation of healthy bone tissue. Researchers have shown that when a diet is deficient in calcium, the body directs calcium to other primary cell functions, leaving bones to become weak and brittle. Calcium supplements, however, can prevent bone density loss by up to 1.2% and reduce the risk of fracture by more than 10% in elderly individuals, as shown in a 2012 study.[2] |
| Magnesium (as dimagnesium malate) | Magnesium is the fourth most abundant mineral in the human body, with over 60% of the element found in the bones. Researchers have shown that magnesium's influence on bone health is far reaching, from its influence on the bone regeneration cycle through parathyroid hormone and vitamin D to its stabilization of calcium levels by returning the mineral to the bones. In a study of magnesium supplementation over a 12 month period, bone mineral content in the hip increased significantly versus placebo.[3] |
| Vitamin K-2 (as menaquinone-7) | A common natural compound in many fermented foods, Vitamin K2 is rarely found in the Western diet. However, it plays an essential role in optimal bone health by regulating calcium deposits in the body, shifting them away from the blood vessels and kidneys and into the bones for fortification. In addition, a clinical study from 2017 found that Vitamin K2 works synergistically with Vitamin D3 to strengthen bones.[4] |
| Boron (as boron citrate) | A trace element found naturally in green, leafy vegetables, boron is a mineral which helps your body metabolize essential vitamins and minerals, making it a key component of bone health. Research has shown that boron increases the length of time that Vitamin D3 and calcium work in your body, allowing for optimal bone density levels. In 2017, a clinical study also found evidence of boron's direct influence on bone density levels and bone microstructure.[5] |
| Vegetable Capsule | Many supplements that you purchase from the store use gelatin capsules to deliver their active ingredients. Not only are these capsules not vegetarian, as they are made from animal parts, but they are also often colored with harmful dyes to obscure their inner contents. But Calciven uses only vegan, non-GMO vegetable capsules made from plant cellulose and contain no additional additives like colors or dyes. This ensures that our product is sensitive to dietary restrictions and completely natural for everyone to take. |
| Dicalcium Phosphate | Dicalcium phosphate is commonly used in the production of tablets and capsules as a "flow agent." It is added during the bottling process to ensure that powdered capsule ingredients do not clump together but instead flow through the machinery with ease. This is essential to provide a consistent, uniformly mixed product. |
| Microcrystalline Cellulose | Microcrystalline cellulose, or wood pulp, is present in each capsule of Calciven as a natural filler. It is used to fill up any empty space in the capsule that might result after all of the other active and inactive ingredients are added. This prevents the capsules from denting while in transit. |
| Magnesium Stearate | Magnesium stearate is present in trace amounts in nearly all capsule and tablet products. It is primarily used as a lubricant that makes the pill easier to swallow and allows it to slide more easily down your digestive tract. It also serves an important purpose as an excipient, meaning that it improves the solubility of the active ingredients and assists your body in absorbing the capsule contents. |
