Calcium supplements are a hot item these days, because in today's society calcium loss and depletion is a major pathological issue. More and more people are suffering from joint & bone problems, so according to the research that has been performed in the past few years regarding bone loss and restoration, certain nutrients like Calcium and Vit D have been proven to be essential for optimal bone health. It is very important that you build a strong foundation of calcium when you are young.

Taking in enough calcium through out life helps to build this strong foundation, and decreases the likelihood of arthritis, osteoporosis, osteomalacia, tetany (muscle cramps), insomnia, irritability, mental depression, nervousness, retarded growth rate, rickets, joint pains, heart palpitations, slow pulse rate, abnormal pulse pressure, tooth decay, anti-coagulation (slow blood clotting), fatigue, loss of energy and premature aging from occurring. And since calcium is involved in just about every chemical reaction in both soft and hard tissues, is it imperative that you take enough in and absorb the right amounts everyday.

Just taking calcium alone however isn't enough though. Proper absorption of Calcium requires synergistic nutrients be made available. So Omnivit makes sure just the right amount of vitamin D is added to their Calcium 600 + D to ensure that enough calcium is going to be absorbed. New research in the Journal of the American Collage of Nutrition shows that taking calcium is good, but the kicker is the vitamin D; the research shows that this is really what makes the product work better! What this all means is that more calcium is absorbed when Vit D is ingested, and when all these components are available at the same time to increase the absorption of Calcium.
