Bone Growth Factor from TriVita

Description

Osteoporosis: a real threat for Americans Bone loss is a major public health threat: About 4 in 10 women and 1 in 10 men over 50 will break a hip, spine or wrist due to weak and porous bones. Each year, about 1.5 million older adults will suffer an osteoporosis-related fracture. A daily serving of Bone Growth Factor's advanced formula provides: * MCHC (microcrystalline hydroxyapatite, 1,500 mg) * Seven forms of calcium (1,000 mg) * Vitamin D3 (1,000 mg) * All the vitamins and minerals recommended by the National Osteoporosis Foundation as important for bone health. Although women, Caucasians and Asians have the highest risk of osteoporosis, it is a real risk for men and women of all backgrounds. Osteoporosis is a real threat for over 40 million Americans. Protect your bones Bone is living tissue that is constantly formed and broken down by your body throughout life. As children and teenagers, our bodies build more bone than they break down. However, somewhere between 18 and 25, the body begins to lose more bone than it forms; this bone loss speeds up around midlife. Many people don't know they have weak bones; a fracture can be the first outward sign. Testing bone density is the surest way to check for bone health. And although we can't control some of the risk factors for bone loss, there are many ways we can help protect our bones—beginning at any age. * Eat a balanced diet rich in calcium and Vitamin D * Exercise regularly * Prevent falls by checking your home for dangers such as loose rugs and poor lighting.
