Advanced Information

Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the human body and it is an essential factor in maintaining strong bones and teeth. Daily stress, pollution, caffeine, carbonated drinks, and some prescription drugs deplete calcium levels and most diets do not provide us with adequate calcium. This may be part of the reason that in Canada, one in three women as well as one in five men over the age of 50 develop osteoporosis, leading to fractures, decreased independence, and often permanent disability. Sisu Calcium & Magnesium 1:1 helps you complement your diet with those essential minerals and vitamin D to prevent bone loss and improve bone density.
