PREVENTING OSTEOPOROSIS & MAINTAIN HEALTHY BONES
Osteoporosis occurs when bones lose too much of their collagen matrix and supportive minerals, too quickly. They become porous, less dense, more fragile, and increasingly prone to fractures. The decline in bone health is usually most pronounced in the hips, spine, ribs and wrist. Osteoporosis is often referred to as a "silent disease" because most sufferers are unaware they have a problem until a fracture occurs.
While a bone fracture may not sound like a terribly serious health problem, the truth of the matter is startling. Many are surprised to learn that more women die each year as a result of osteoporotic fractures than from breast and ovarian cancer combined. It is not the fractures (which are often in the hip) that are deadly in themselves; rather, the serious complications that often follow fractures frequently lead to death.
Yet, osteoporosis is a preventable disease in the vast majority of cases, if the right steps are taken. Bio Bone contains some of the top nutrients to help you on the path to optimal bone health and a fracture-free life. Bio BONE liquid contains the following natural ingredients in a great tropical berry flavoured, super absorbable formula.
Collagen
Supplementing with collagen is vital for bone health. Research verifies that liquid oral collagen supplementation can slow and stabilize the rate of collagen breakdown in humans, and animal research suggests that administerin collagen may also improve bone mineral density.
Calcium
To preserve bone mass, a daily calcium supplement is a must, but the type of calcium is important. More and more nutrition experts suggest avoiding calcium carbonate due to low absorption, especially among those with low stomach acid - which includes many postmenopausal women. Chelated forms of calcium, such as citrate, have nearly double the absorption rates as carbonate and are preferred in supplements. Calcium supplementation can slow bone loss from 30 to 50% and significantly reduce the risk of hip fractures. In a recent study, calcium supplements reduced the risk of all fractures by an astounding 72%!
Magnesium
This multi-faceted mineral is often paired with calcium because it regulates calcium metabolism and converts dietary vitamin D to the active form necessary for calcium absorption. Those with osteoporosis have lower levels of magnesium in their bones. In a study involving 2,000 elderly volunteers, researchers found that for every 100 mg per day increase in magnesium intake, there was a 2% increase in whole-body bone mineral density.
Vitamin D
Vitamin D is necessary to get calcium absorbed into the small intestine and through to the bloodstream. It also inhibits inflammatory immune factors that can pull calcium from bones. Studies show that taking vitamin D alone can reduce the annual rate of hip fracture by more than half an improve bone density. Results were even better for people taking a combination of calcium and vitamin D.
Silicon
Silicon is necessary for the production of collagen in the body, including the bones. Researchers have found that enriching tissue samples with silicon increases collagen production by more than 200%. Without adequate silicon, an enzyme involved in the formation of collagen cannot function properly. Supplementing with silicon (or silica) can help make up for what is lacking in our foods and declining in our bodies in order to maintain bone collagen. Researchers studying silicon and bone mineral density in peop1e found large differences in density between the highest and lowest intakes of silica. They believe that silica helps trigger the deposition of calcium and phosphate, reducing the number of bone-destroying cells and increasing the number of bone-building cells.
Boron
Found in highest concentrations in our bones, boron is a trace mineral that acts as a kind of coordinator for the other major bone-builders, including calcium, magnesium and vitamin D. It appears to help soften the effects of deficiencies in both vitamin D and magnesium while decreasing the amount of calcium and magnesium lost in urine.
Zinc
Research shows that zinc stimulates bone formation and inhibits bone loss. Zinc activates bone cells to properly deposit calcium, while also stimulating the production and renewal of collagen.
For women over 30, dealing with declining bone mass is a bit like riding a bike with a punctured tire. You can't get a new tire, but as long as you patch it carefully and keep it pumped up with enough air, that bike will still get you where you need to go. But ignore that persistent leak for too long and you may end up stuck on the side of the road or even worse, sprawled in the ditch after a hard fall!
To avoid or address osteoporosis, take the time now to assess your diet and exercise habits in terms of how they may help or hinder your bone health. Try Bio BONE liquid, your natural source for all of the bone-building supplements listed, and commit to a daily, long-term supplement plan to maximize bone mass and enjoy strength and mobility as you age.
