Description
What is it for?
Calcium is an essential mineral with fundamental functions in our body, among which the skeletal and structural, and the regulatory ones stand out. Therefore, it is a micronutrient that should never be deficient, since it is one of the most abundant minerals in the body, especially at the skeleton level, where up to 99% of this mineral can accumulate.
On the other hand, it is essential for metabolism and maintenance of structure at the cellular levelIn addition, it also functions as a second messenger, which means that it is necessary for the secretion of neurotransmitters and neuromodulators by the nervous system, or for muscle contraction, among many other functions. In summary, Calcium is essential for various organic systems, where the cardiovascular, bone, nervous and muscular systems stand out..
In the case of vitamin D, this micronutrient It is necessary for the correct absorption of Calcium by the body.. In other words, in situations of vitamin D deficiency, calcium cannot be optimally absorbed by the intestine and, therefore, the previously mentioned functions could worsen.
Since vitamin D is a micronutrient whose deficiency is very common, since its main source of obtaining it is through the sun and, it is not always possible to take it in the right conditions (due to physical condition, climate, geographical location, etc.), administer it together with Calcium will ensure that the proper functions of calcium are fulfilled, and will provide extra functions typical of an adequate state of vitamin D, such as well-being or improvement of the immune system.
In any case, and since calcium can account for up to 2% of a person's body weight and is therefore relatively more essential than vitamin D, the joint contribution of both micronutrients will have a very notable positive impact at the bone levelPlus all the extra benefits.
The calcium
Secondly, the 500 mg of elemental calcium ensure a complementary dosage with the diet without altering cardioendothelial parameters, so that it becomes an ideal complement together with vitamin D.
The correct absorption of calcium and vitamin D will improve bone mineral density and reduce the risk of fractures and bone pathologies, such as osteoporosis and osteopenia and, at the metabolic level, vitamin D helps improve insulin resistance, which reduces the risk of obesity or diabetes, in addition to optimizing the functioning of the immune system, and being able to improve state of mind
On the other hand, at the sporting level, calcium is necessary for the process of muscle contraction to occur correctly and, a deficient state of calcium in the blood, which is known as hypocalcaemia, can cause situations of tetany.
Who is this product recommended for?
As you can see, This product can be recommended both in athletes and in people with different health problems such as osteoporosis and even to prevent and even treat problems related to the postmenopausal stage. and, also, linked to premenstrual syndrome.
In the case of women who suffer from premenstrual syndrome, it is common for a deficiency to appear, leading to a marked deregulation that can alter different physiological conditions.
In fact, in several scientific works an inverse correlation appears between the intake of Calcium and vitamin D and the effects of premenstrual syndromeThus, especially during the luteal phase, an important nutritional problem could appear, aggravated by an incomplete diet.
Thus, This product is recommended for various population groups, from athletes, people suffering from hypocalcaemia (as can occur in nephropathies or hypoparathyroidism, among others), women suffering from premenstrual syndrome, people at risk of suffering from bone diseases (bedridden, elderly people, postmenopausal women, etc.), among others.
Benefits:
- improvement of the bone health Y decreased risk of osteoporosis and fractures.
- Improvement of deficiency of important nutrients in the Premenstrual syndrome.
- Decreased risk of onset of premenstrual syndrome either problems related to menopause.
- Possible improvement of mood.
- Optimizes the function of the neuromuscular system, thus allowing the correct production of muscle contraction.
What dose to consume?
The correct dosage is 2 capsules at 2 different times of the day, in order to consume a total of 4 final capsules.
