Formulated to support bone health, this comprehensive supplement provides a balanced ratio of Calcium and Magnesium, plus B Vitamins and Vitamin D.
Why take a bone and connective tissue health supplement?
Your bones are essential to your well-being and are put through the motions of life every day. They form the structure of your body, giving it its shape and ability to support and protect the body and its internal organs. Bone also serves as a storage site for essential minerals and provides the cells needed to produce functional cells including the development and storage of blood cells.
Bone mass changes throughout life, increasing throughout the earlier stages as we develop into adulthood, and decreasing as we age. Therefore, optimising bone health is important at all ages to build and maintain a strong skeleton structure throughout our lifetime.
Connective tissue describes the tissue that supports, protects, and gives structure to organs in the body. Muscles, ligaments, tendons, and cartilage are connective tissues that complement the structure and function of bones and joints. Maintaining their health supports healthy movement and positive mobility. This is important if you have an active lifestyle, or if you want to maintain movement throughout slower periods of life.
How does it work?
Ostron® is a premium formulation, that provides targeted micronutrients for the health of your bones and connective tissue. Calcium is needed for the maintenance of normal bones (about 99% of the body’s calcium is stored in bones). Magnesium, Manganese, Zinc, and Vitamin D are also needed for the maintenance of normal bones.
Specific micronutrients have also been selected based on their ability to contribute to muscle and connective tissue health. Vitamin D, Calcium and Magnesium also support normal muscle function. In addition, Magnesium and Zinc contribute to normal protein synthesis (muscles are made up of protein). Copper and Manganese both play a role in maintaining connective tissue health. Manganese contributes to the normal formation of connective tissue, while Copper supports its maintenance.
