Mykind Organics Plant Calcium contains 800 mg of calcium and is sourced from organic algae and 20 different powdered fruits and vegetables, as opposed to other calcium supplements, which can be sourced from pulverized and ground-up limestone or from animal bone. Other calcium products can also contain synthetic binders and fillers, making them more difficult to digest.
Calcium supplementation is extremely important in maintaining healthy bone mass and density, and to lower the risk of developing osteoporosis later in life, a condition that affects millions of people in North America. Calcium also plays a role in maintaining proper muscle function, metabolism of fats, proteins and carbohydrates and maintenance of heart, nerve function and blood-clotting systems. It is important to note that the incorporation of calcium-rich foods and daily, low-impact exercise can reduce the risk of developing osteoporosis later in life.
Mykind Organics Plant Calcium contains magnesium, vegan vitamin D3 from lichen, and the best form of vitamin K2 (MK-7), for easier and more efficient absorption of the calcium. This formula is encapsulated in an organic coating for easy digestion.
