Claims by Manufacturer
Indications:
As a daily source of extra calcium.
Research shows that certain ethnic, age, and other groups are at higher risk of developing osteoporosis, including Caucasian and Asian teen and young adult women, those with a family history of fragile bones. A balanced diet with enough calcium and regular exercise will help you to build and maintain healthy bones and may reduce your risk of developing osteoporosis. Daily intake above 2,000 mg elemental calcium is unlikely to provide added benefits.
