Osteocare Plus is scientifically formulated, and developed by experts. Each ingredient is included on the basis of research evidence. Osteocare Plus combines the original Osteocare tablet formula with soy isoflavones and omega-3 capsules in a convenient 2-in-1 dual pack. No other supplement provides the exact Nutrient Reference Value of calcium & zinc, with 35µg vitamin D3, magnesium plus additional supporting nutrients.
Research shows the earlier both men and women receive a good supply of these nutrients the better. Getting enough calcium is especially important:
For growing children, throughout pregnancy & breast-feeding, during and after the menopause, for elderly men and women, for athletes and those individuals avoiding food products containing calcium.
Osteocare Plus is formulated for long-term use and can be taken for as long as required.
Osteocare Plus is a calcium combination supplement, specially formulated as a daily nutritional safeguard for men and women of all ages.
Generally, Osteocare Plus can be taken alongside medications because it contains only moderate levels of minerals, vitamin D3, Omega-3 fish oils and soy isoflavones. For specific advice on taking Osteocare Plus with medicines, we recommend that you contact your doctor or pharmacist first.
Two Osteocare micronutrient tablets Plus one capsule are recommended daily with meals, with water or a cold drink. Swallow without chewing. Always ensure that Osteocare Plus is taken with plenty of liquid to wash down the tablet. We do not recommend chewing the tablets or capsules because they have not been formulated as chewable preparations. Chewable tablets usually include flavourings, sweeteners and/or added ingredients to help break the tablet up in the mouth. The original Osteocare formula is also available in liquid, chewable and fizz forms. The liquid version is ideal for those who have difficulty-swallowing tablets, and for younger children over 3 years old.
Osteocare contains 56 calcium and micronutrient tablets (two per day) and 28 Omega-3 capsules (one per day).
Osteocare Plus has no known side effects when taken as directed. Do not exceed the recommended intake.
Difficulty in swallowing tablets and capsules is quite a common experience. Vitabiotics have researched this extensively and recommend after chewing some food (e.g. banana), just before you swallow, pop the tablet or capsule into your mouth and swallow it together with the chewed food, followed by some liquid. The throat opens up wider to swallow the chewed food and so the tablet or capsule should go down with greater ease. Alternatively, the tablets and capsules may be swallowed with thicker liquids such as yoghurts or smoothies.
The calcium in Osteocare Plus is in the form of calcium carbonate, which provides the highest concentration of elemental calcium possible in a supplement. This means that Osteocare Plus can provide the full NRV of calcium and other minerals without the need to take lots of tablets. The calcium carbonate used is of high pharmaceutical grade from a natural source. To prevent possible contamination with metals such as lead, oyster calcium and bone-dolomite have not been included in the Osteocare formulation.
It is important to select a calcium supplement such as Osteocare Plus, which includes calcium in combination with other synergistic co-factors such as magnesium. The presence of the mineral magnesium, as well as contributing to the maintenance of normal bones, also contributes to normal protein synthesis and electrolyte balance.
During pregnancy we recommend you take a supplement specially formulated for pregnancy such as Vitabiotics Pregnacare Max which provides 500mg calcium.
Osteocare Plus has been carefully formulated so that it can be used in combination with any other product in Vitabiotics' multivitamin and mineral product range, or other food supplements such as garlic or glucosamine. However, for maximum results we recommend Osteocare is taken at a separate time of the day, at least an hour apart from your main Vitabiotics ' multivitamin supplement.
Certain vitamins are very safe at levels tens or even hundreds of times the NRV, whereas for others the safety level is much closer to the NRV. For this reason every vitamin and mineral needs to considered on an individual basis in terms of its upper safe level.
The Nutrient Reference Value (NRV) is the amount of a vitamin or mineral which has been calculated to help prevent basic deficiency states in the general population. However, certain vitamins and minerals at optimal levels, above the NRV, have consistently been shown to have positive benefits in specific areas of health. This is why some Vitabiotics formulas have certain nutrient levels greater than 100% NRV.
All Vitabiotics products have been developed using the latest research and contain effective levels of vitamins and minerals, while avoiding any excessive amounts, in accordance with official upper safe limits for vitamins and minerals.
Vitabiotics avoids 'mega dose' levels of isolated nutrients and instead we have always stressed the importance of safe, moderate and sensible levels of vitamins and minerals, carefully balanced to maximise their combined effect; an approach which has been supported by many experts and researchers over the years.
Each Osteocare Plus pack contains 28 days supply (4 weeks). We recommend subscribing to 1 pack every 4 weeks.
