NSI Advanced Bone Support Formula with FruiteX-B OsteoBoron -- 150 Capsules

NSI Advanced Bone Support Formula with FruiteX-B OsteoBoron -- 150 Capsules

Combines seven powerful nutrients including calcium, magnesium and vitamin D at optimal levels to support bone health. Features a superior form of boron, a trace mineral that helps the body retain calcium. How Does NSI® Advanced Bone Support Formula with FruiteX-B® OsteoBoron™ work? NSI® Advanced Bone Support Formula is an exclusive blend of vitamins and minerals that work together to support bone health. Each serving contains optimal levels of the following nutrients:. Calcium: The most abundant mineral in bone, calcium is necessary for bone structure and strength, as well as for other basic body functions such as muscle function and nerve contraction. When not enough calcium is obtained through diet, the body draws what it needs from bone stores. Adequate calcium intake is crucial for maintaining healthy bone mass. This formula delivers an optimal 1,200 mg per serving. Vitamin D: Vitamin D contributes to bone health by helping the body properly absorb calcium. Without vitamin D, calcium cannot be processed or perform its necessary functions. The current Recommended Dietary Allowance of vitamin D (400 IU to 800 IU) is believed to be insufficient to support bone health. This formula contains 1,000 IU of vitamin D3, a naturally-occurring form of vitamin D that's more potent than the commonly used synthetic version. Magnesium: Like vitamin D, magnesium helps the body absorb and utilize calcium. It's estimated that eight out of 10 Americans do not consume ideal amounts of magnesium in their everyday diets. With this formula, you'll receive a superior 340 mg per serving. Zinc/Manganese: A large amount of the of the body's zinc supply is found in the bones. It may help stimulate bone formation and play a part in the maintenance of healthy bones throughout life¹. Manganese is also important for normal bone growth. Each serving of NSI® Advanced Bone Support Formula contains 2 mg of zinc and 1 mg of manganese. Silicon: A trace mineral involved in making and maintaining connective tissue, silicon promotes the formation and calcification of bone tissues. The silicon in this formula is derived from horsetail herb, Equisetum arvense. 5 mg is included. Boron: Another trace mineral that supports bone health, boron helps the body utilize calcium and also enhances the activity of vitamin D. This formula features FruiteX-B® OsteoBoron™, a patented, natural form of boron that's identical to that found in fruits and vegetables. It's more bioavailable than boron citrate, used in other bone-supporting supplements. NSI® Advanced Bone Support Formula with FruiteX?B™ OsteoBoron™ is better because it:. Delivers optimal amounts of seven bone-supporting nutrients in one convenient supplement. Costs less than other bone-supporting formulas on the market. ¹ Yamaguchi M.

"No complaints about this product except i have to wonder why they would put such a high dosage of calcium in-- and one dosage is 5 capsules; the body can reportedly only absorb around 500 mg of calcium at one time and it is better to divide your daily doses of calcium up, not take 1200+ mg at one time. I use it, but I don't take the recommended 5 capsules per serving."

"As someone who sells vitamins for a living & educates the public on how to find & use the most effective vitamin products, I find TWO things really make this product stand above other "bone support" formulas.

The forms of calcium it contains (dicalcium malate and calcium bisglycinate) are superior to most other formulas, which use either calcium carbonate or calcium citrate (not so great forms).

2nd, this product contains OsteoBoron FruiteX-B, the most advanced supplemental form available of the vital mineral Boron. Human clinical studies have shown FruiteX-B to dramatically improve bone and joint health.

The higher level of Vitamin D3 is also a plus, as higher levels of vitamin D have now been shown necessary for bone, heart and immune system health.

My only caveat is the form & dosage of magnesium (the less effective oxide form). This is what keeps me from giving this product 5 stars across the board.

This is still an exceptional product, and will likely make you very happy with the results!"

"After researching various info on calcium, came to the conclusion that this product best fit the the requirements for absorablity. Research produced the fact that that no more than 500 mg can be absorbed at a time, with the excess producing adverse effects. The 240 mg per single cap of Bone Strength allows for matching the correct amount with calcium in other supplements or food sources. Prior to using Bone Strength, I was daily and nightly experiencing horrific cramps in legs and feet. Disappearance of cramps was immediate after a day on Bone Strength."
