CanPrev Osteo Prolong 800mg Calcium & Magnesium - Complete Bone Health Formula

Optimized Calcium Absorption & Bone Mineralization: This formula combines calcium citrate (highly bioavailable) with calcium carbonate (concentrated source) alongside vitamin D3 and vitamin K1 to ensure calcium is properly absorbed through the intestinal wall and directed to bone tissue rather than soft tissues. Vitamin K1 activates osteocalcin, the protein that binds calcium to the bone matrix, while vitamin D3 enhances intestinal calcium uptake by up to 30-40%, creating a synergistic effect that maximizes skeletal mineralization and density.

Gentle, High-Absorption Magnesium for Bone Matrix Support: Featuring magnesium bisglycinate—a chelated form bound to the amino acid glycine—this formula provides exceptional absorption without the digestive discomfort associated with cheaper magnesium forms. Magnesium comprises 50-60% of total body stores in bone tissue and is essential for converting vitamin D into its active form, regulating parathyroid hormone, and activating over 300 enzymatic reactions involved in bone remodelling and calcium metabolism.

Comprehensive Trace Mineral Support for Skeletal Integrity: Zinc citrate (12mg daily) and boron citrate (700mcg daily) provide critical cofactors for bone formation and maintenance. Zinc activates alkaline phosphatase and supports collagen synthesis in bone matrix, while boron reduces urinary calcium and magnesium excretion, enhances vitamin D conversion, and increases serum levels of 17-beta estradiol—the hormone that protects against bone loss, particularly important during and after menopause.

Naturopathic Doctor-Formulated Multi-System Benefits: Extensively researched by CanPrev's team of naturopathic doctors, this formula goes beyond basic bone support to maintain healthy muscle function, connective tissue integrity, dental health, and skin structure. The balanced 2.3:1 calcium-to-magnesium ratio prevents the muscle cramping and constipation common with calcium-only supplements while supporting neuromuscular function, cardiovascular health, and proper nerve signal transmission throughout the body.
