Ingredients explained
Calcium (elemental) from Microcrystalline Hydroxyapatite (MCHA)
Provides calcium in a bone-like matrix that is incorporated into hydroxyapatite crystals, contributing to the mineral structure of bones.
Caution: Space dosing away from high-iron supplements if sensitive, as minerals can compete for absorption.
Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol)
Supports intestinal absorption of calcium and phosphate and signals bone cells to help regulate mineral deposition.
Caution: Avoid excessive total vitamin D intake from multiple products to reduce risk of elevated calcium levels.
Vitamin K2 (MK-7, menaquinone-7)
Activates proteins such as osteocalcin that help direct calcium into bones and away from soft tissues.
Caution: Consult a healthcare professional if using anticoagulant medicines, as vitamin K2 may affect their action.
Magnesium (as magnesium oxide)
Acts as a cofactor for enzymes involved in bone formation and helps balance calcium dynamics in cells.
Caution: May cause loose stools in some people; take with food and adjust timing if gastrointestinal discomfort occurs.
Boron (as boron citrate)
May influence mineral metabolism and vitamin D utilisation, supporting healthy calcium and magnesium handling.
Caution: Do not exceed suggested use, as high intakes of boron may cause digestive discomfort.
How they work together
Calcium supplies the structural mineral for bones, while vitamin D3 enhances calcium absorption and signalling for mineral deposition. Vitamin K2 activates proteins that guide calcium into bone tissue, and magnesium supports bone-forming enzyme activity. Boron complements these nutrients by influencing mineral and vitamin D metabolism.
Safety and tips
Label Warning: Consult a healthcare professional before use if pregnant, nursing, under 18, taking medications (especially anticoagulants such as warfarin) or if you have a medical condition. Stop use if adverse reactions occur.
Who should be cautious: People on anticoagulants due to vitamin K2 content. Those with kidney stones or reduced kidney function may wish to review calcium and vitamin D intake with a clinician. Individuals on thyroid medication may need to separate calcium and magnesium from their dose. People taking certain antibiotics may need to separate dosing from calcium and magnesium. If you use medications that may interact with vitamin K, discuss with a healthcare provider before use.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Keep out of the reach of children.
