| Calcium with Vitamin D³ |
 |
Highly absorbable calcium, reduces risk of osteoporosis;
combined with vitamin D3 to support bone, cardiovascular
and colon health
*Several clinical trials reveal the positive effects of combined supplemental
calcium and vitamin D for bone health. Vitamin D is important
for its ability to promote intestinal calcium and phosphorous
absorption, reduce urinary calcium loss and enhance healthy bone
composition. In a large trial published in the New England Journal of
Medicine involving over 3,000 women, supplementation with calcium
and vitamin D daily for one and a half years supported bone
composition of the femur. In another study, calcium and vitamin D
supplementation promoted calcium utilization and maintained healthy
bones in postmenopausal women. Calcium citrate malate combined
with vitamin D maintained healthy bones in a separate group of
postmenopausal women, specifically supporting the spine. An
analysis of several trials indicates a positive influence of calcium on
cardiovascular health, an effect that may be most specific for saltsensitive
individuals. Vitamin D may also provide cardiovascular
support for some individuals, which may be attributed to its effect on
calcium metabolism or possibly by helping to maintain healthy plasma
renin function. Additionally, calcium has been associated with
supporting distal colon health. A role for vitamin D in supporting
colon health by promoting healthy cellular function has also been
suggested. Preliminary evidence suggests that vitamin D may also
support healthy glucose metabolism, since vitamin D receptors are
present on the islet cells of the pancreas.
Calcium with Vitamin D3 supports optimal calcium absorption and
bone mineral composition, in addition to promoting potential cardiovascular
and colon health.

| Cal/Mag w/ Cofactors (powder) |
 |
Highly absorbable form of calcium;
combined with magnesium, vitamin D, boron, silica and xylitol
*Randomized, double blind, placebo?controlled studies have reported statistically
significant benefits of calcium supplementation for bone health. Magnesium,
like calcium, is an essential bone matrix mineral that promotes healthy
bone metabolism. A trial involving 2,038 older individuals indicated that
higher intakes of magnesium were positively associated with bone mineralization
for certain individuals. Vitamin D promotes intestinal calcium and phosphorous absorption and reduces urinary calcium loss, essential
mechanisms for maintaining healthy calcium levels in the body and for healthy
bone composition. A recent 7?year study involving 36,282 women indicated that combined supplementation of calcium and vitamin D promoted healthy hip bones. Boron supports calcium, phosphorous, magnesium and vitamin D metabolism and plays a role in reducing urinary calcium and magnesium excretion. In addition, it strengthens the connective structure in bone matrix. Silica is a component of connective tissue and studies have suggested that it supports bone and collagen formation. A cross?sectional study involving 2,847 people suggests that optimal silicon intake is positively related to bone mineral health, particularly for cortical bone. Research suggests xylitol may help facilitate intestinal absorption and retention of calcium, as well as promote healthy bone structure and strength.
Cal/Mag w/CoFactors (powder)
provides convenient dosing and includes key nutrients to promote calcium
utilization and enhance healthy bone mineralization.

| +CAL+® with Ipriflavone |
 |
*Complete bone support formula with ipriflavone; provides
calcium to help reduce the risk of osteoporosis
*This broad spectrum combination of minerals, vitamins, and herbs is
formulated to aid in the formation and strengthening of the skeletal
system. It provides highly bioavailable forms of calcium, a mineral
essential not only for the maintenance of the functional integrity of
the nervous, muscular, and skeletal systems, but also cell membrane
and capillary impermeability. This formula also provides substances
which nutritionally support and enhance the absorption of calcium
and the incorporation of calcium into bone. In addition, it provides
nutrients essential to normal bone structure and formation, the
synthesis and strengthening of connective tissue in cartilage and
bone, and the formation of elastin. Ipriflavone, an advanced addition
to this formula, is a synthetic derivative of naturally occurring
isoflavones. It supports healthy bone maintenance by promoting
secretion of the hormone calcitonin, modulating osteoclast activity.
Ipriflavone also supports type I collagen and the formation of
mineralized bone matrix, supporting healthy bone synthesis and
bone density. Furthermore, +CAL+® is enhanced with 400 I.U. of
vitamin D3 for optimal bone health.
+CAL+® combines the nutritional elements necessary to strengthen
the skeletal system and resist the onset of osteoporosis.

| Ipriflavone with Vitamin D³ |
 |
Support for healthy bones
*In growing bones and throughout adult life, specialized bone cells
synthesize new tissue while others remove older tissue, a natural
remodeling process that helps to maintain healthy bone structure.
When resorption, or removal, of old bone tissue by cells known as
osteoclasts occurs at a faster rate than synthesis of new tissue, bone
health is compromised. Ipriflavone is a synthetic derivative of
naturally occurring soy isoflavones. It has demonstrated the ability to
maintain normal osteoclast activity. It achieves this by promoting the
secretion of the hormone calcitonin and by helping to modulate
intracellular calcium. As a result, Ipriflavone supports healthy bone
maintenance. At the same time, Ipriflavone supports type 1 collagen
and the formation of mineralized bone matrix, supporting healthy
bone synthesis. Vitamin D3 promotes optimal calcium absorption
from food, providing essential support for joint health.
Pure Encapsulations Ipriflavone with vitamin D3 enhances healthy
bone metabolism, maintaining optimal bone density.

| OsteoBalanceTM |

High calcium osteoporosis support with broad spectrum cofactors
*OsteoBalance. provides 1,200 mg of calcium per serving from calcium
citrate/malate and calcium microcrystalline hydroxyapatite (MCHA).
This formula also includes a comprehensive profile of important bone
building nutrients. Calcium citrate/malate has excellent bioavailability
and provided bone mass support for postmenopausal women with
low dietary calcium intake in a two-year, double-blind placebocontrolled
trial. In a separate two-year trial, calcium MCHA maintained
healthy bone mineral content in volunteers. One study demonstrated
that concomitant supplementation of the trace minerals zinc, copper,
and manganese with calcium citrate/malate helped to promote
proper bone metabolism in postmenopausal subjects. Magnesium
supports healthy bone mineral density and boron plays an important
role in reducing urinary calcium and magnesium excretion. Like
boron, vitamin D3 reduces urinary calcium loss but is also a key
nutrient because it enhances calcium absorption.
OsteoBalanceTM provides a high calcium osteoporosis support formula
with additional nutritional factors that promote optimal calcium
absorption and retention and enhance healthy bone mineralization.
