Bone-vit
food supplement of calcium and minerals
  • Calcium is vital for strong bones and teeth, and the health of the heart, muscles and nerves. It is especially important during pregnancy, lactation and in the menopause.
  • Vitamin D3 acts as a regulator of calcium metabolism and maintains the normal rate of bone formation. 
  • Zinc and magnesium are essential elements of nutrition. They are important constituents of many enzyme systems and are present in all tissues, Zinc speeds wound healing and boosts the ageing of the immune system. 
  • Zinc plays an important role in the treatment of acrodermatitis enteropathica, anorexia nervosa, and aphthous ulcer. 
  • Zinc and magnesium are widely distributed throughout the body and are excreted in the faeces with only traces appearing in the urine and  have little or no role in regulating the content of zinc in the body.
  • Magnesium salts  and  calcium carbonate are important during pregnancy for neutralizing hyperacidity of common occurrence. Carbonate acts quickly for short time, while magnesium acts for long time.
