Why is it necessary, and what are the keys to having flexible and healthy bones

The skeletal system is the vase and integrity of our bodies.

Osteoporosis is a common disease worldwide. Osteoporosis is estimated to affect 200 million women worldwide, as the statistics show.

What can we do with nutrition to keep our bones healthy and strong?

Taking calcium tablets is not enough. Other factors are needed for nutrient absorption and incorporation. The efficient entry of minerals into the bone, ensuring bone proteins’ quality and stimulating bone-building processes, is of paramount importance.

The two most important components of maintaining healthy bones are calcium and vitamin D. Calcium is essential for building bones and teeth. Vitamin D promotes calcium absorption and bone growth.
