  Pioneer Vegetarian Calcium / MagnesiumPioneer Nutritional Formulas Vegetarian Calcium Magnesium 120 tabs. Superior absorption of calcium, magnesium and trace minerals. Silica, boron and vitamin D2 for increased calcium utilization.
Trace Mineral Complex - Bone health requires more than just calcium.
Broad-spectrum, bioavailable ionic trace minerals and micronutrients from pure, concentrated low-sodium seawater.
Increased calcium utilization.
Bone is a dynamic, living tissue. It is a major storehouse for our body's demands for calcium, magnesium, phosphorous and a host of other nutrients. Bone constituents are constantly recycled in the body while new bone is made. In fact, every bone cell in our body is replaced once every three months. The formation of healthy bone requires the presence of more than 18 different essential nutrients and probably many more as yet unidentified as essential. That's why it is important to think of bone health as requiring a whole lot more than just calcium.
VEGETARIAN CALCIUM MAGNESIUM TRACE MINERAL COMPLEX
Pioneer Vegetarian Calcium/Magnesium offers superior mineral
absorption, broad spectrum bone nutrients and easily utilized
ionic trace minerals in a 100% vegetarian formula.
Bone is a dynamic, living tissue whose health relies on much
more than just calcium. Additional minerals and trace minerals,
as well as hormones, proteins, vitamins and other nutrients
also play important roles. All of these substances influence the
health of our bones as they participate in complex, biochemical
interrelationships between organs, glands and tissues.
Bone constituents are constantly being recycled for use
throughout the body while new bone is being made. In fact,
each bone cell in our body is replaced once every three months.
The formation of healthy bone requires the presence of at least
eighteen different essential nutrients,1,2 and likely many more.
Pioneer Vegetarian Calcium/Magnesium Trace Mineral
Complex goes far beyond the ordinary, providing extremely
well-utilized, clinically researched ingredients. Combine it with
a high quality multivitamin/mineral supplement, such as
PIONEER 1+ Vitamin/Mineral, plus regular exercise and a
natural whole foods diet, to provide a solid foundation for
good, stable bone health.
CONSIDER THESE ADVANTAGES:
1. Highly Bioavailable Calcium. Calcium citrate
malate is a fully-reacted calcium chelate that exhibits higher
solubility than even calcium citrate. Of the few forms of calcium
that have been shown to increase bone density, it is among
the most well-researched. Various studies indicate that calcium
citrate malate prevents bone loss from the spine, and increases
density of the femoral head.2,3,4,5 The other Krebs Cycle intermediates
also provide high calcium absorbability.
2. Multiple Source Magnesium. Magnesium plays a
role in regulating calcium transport and utilization, and has
been shown to increase bone density in older people who are
magnesium deficient.6,7,8 This formula’s magnesium comes
from fully-reacted chelates of malate and rice protein amino
acids, oxide and ionic magnesium from sea water. High quality,
multiple sources of magnesium increase the body’s potential
for absorption and utilization by offering several pathways of
uptake. (Mag. sources/ratios in tablets and capsules differ; see label.)
3. Boron. This important micronutrient is considered a
requisite for the efficient metabolism and utilization of calcium,
magnesium, vitamin D and phosphorus.9
4. Silica. In bone, collagen is the connective tissue matrix
upon which minerals gather. Silica is believed to influence the
rate of collagen formation, and has been shown to improve
bone mineral density of the hip.10
5. Low Sodium Trace Mineral Complex. Research
suggests that the presence of trace minerals is essential to good
bone health, as well as overall well-being.1,2 PIONEER’s broad
array of trace minerals and micronutrients are derived from
pure, concentrated inland sea water from the Great Salt Lake.
These minerals are directly utilizable in the body due to their
ionic (charged) form. And unlike some mined and colloidal
minerals, our Trace Mineral Complex is extremely low in aluminum,
lead and other heavy metals.
6. True Full-Disclosure Labeling. All ingredients,
their forms, and ratios are disclosed on the label of every
PIONEER product. Read the label!
