Osteo P

Dietary supplement

Useful for the prevention of osteoporosis.

Things?
It is a food supplement based on minerals essential for bone integrity. It is enriched with Vitamin K ₂ and Vitamin D ₃ , which complement the biological effects of minerals.

When is it needed?
Indicated in particular conditions such as menopause, in cases of increased need or reduced intake of specific nutrients.

Why use it?
The presence of Vitamin D and K ₂ contribute to the physiological maintenance of the bone structure.

How to use:
3 tablets a day, preferably with meals.

Based on:
Horsetail (7% in Silica), Fossil Coral Calcium, Magnesium, Zinc, Vitamin K ₂ and Vitamin D ₃ .

Vitamin D
It is essential for the absorption of calcium in the intestine and for the physiological mineralization of bones. It can be bio-synthesized by the body when it is adequately exposed to sunlight, especially in people who are no longer very young, Vitamin D deficiencies are frequent.

Magnesium
Magnesium plays a very important role in the metabolism of living beings. About 60% is stored in the bones, 38% in the muscles and about 1-2% in the blood plasma and red blood cells. Magnesium is a mineral necessary for the proper functioning of over 300 enzymes (substances of a protein nature that accelerate important biochemical reactions), especially those involved in the formation of energy. Magnesium also participates in the calcium fixation process.

OSTEOPOROSIS
Learn more about osteoporosis.
Osteoporosis is a disorder generally linked to old age and family history (a person has a greater risk if episodes of osteoporosis have already appeared in his family). Aging can lead to a slow but progressive reduction of bone constituents (without pain or other particular symptoms). If this progressive reduction is not identified in time with specific medical tests, it can turn first into osteopenia and then into full-blown osteoporosis. As a result it is easier to incur fractures, even for traumas of not high intensity or for trivial falls.

Why are women more affected than men?
- Generally lower bone mass than men: women with slender body structure have on average less bone mass than people with more robust build.
- Menopause: with the progressive reduction of the production of sex hormones, women can lose bone mass earlier.
- Greater longevity of women than men: they can progressively lose minerals from the bone considering a greater number of years of life.

Beware of a sedentary lifestyle.
The skeletal system needs mechanical stimuli (body weight, stress and movement of the muscular system) to strengthen and stay healthy: low physical activity can lead to bone loss. Space flights have helped to demonstrate that the (total or partial) absence of gravity causes osteopenia (reduction of bone mass) even in young people and in excellent physical shape; as well as physical immobilization or a long stay in bed can lead to decalcification of the bones. On the other hand, moderate but regular physical activity favors the maintenance of bone mass. for example, walking for half an hour a day is also healthy for the musculoskeletal system.
