Calcium is involved in the structural formation of bones and teeth. It is also needed for 'normal' communication amongst nerve cells, for blood clotting wound healing, and muscle contraction. If there is not enough calcium consumed daily, the body will take it from the bones to help it perform vital functions. An adult only gets 50% of the calcium it needs from the diet.

Calcium has been used to treat a variety of disorders. Its primary use is the promotion of healthy bones and teeth. Calcium has also been shown to be beneficial in protection from osteoporosis which is usually related to post-menopausal women.

Taking one tablet of Bio-Calcium + D3 + K (equivalent to 500 mg calcium) per day is recommended for general well-being and two tablets (equivalent to 1000 mg) per day has been shown to give a therapeutic benefit.

Many scientific papers show the beneficial effects of Bio-Calcium, particularly in its use as a mineral for maintaining bones and teeth, helping prevent progressive bone loss and osteoporosis.
