What makes Biocalth Unique?
Biocalth ® is the only product on the market to contain Calcium L-Threonate which directs calcium through your intestines and deposits the calcium more effectively to the bones. In addition to the advantages of its bioavailability, Biocalth® actually results in:
- Bones which are not merely stronger but more flexible
- Increased collagen formation (collagen is not formed as a result of calcium supplementation
- Promotion of cartilage development (cartilage is not formed as a result of calcium supplementation)
Biocalth has the effect of 3 nutrients:
- Calcium
- Glucosamine
- Chondroitin
Due to the relatively high bioavailability of BioCalth®, the effects are generally experienced within the first few weeks
The graph below shows the amount of Calcium L-Threonate absorbed in the body over a 24 hour period, compared to that of Calcium carbonate used in ordinary Calcium supplements.
The science behind Biocalth®
- BioCalth is formed when ascorbic acid and calcium carbonate are reacted together under controlled conditions.
- The result is a breakdown of the ascorbic acid to L-threonate which also becomes linked to calcium
- Scientific Studies revealed significant increases in the absorption and utilisation by the body of the L-threonate form compared to other calcium forms.
The chemical structure of the Biocalth module is unique.
The binding qualities of the molecule are key to allow it to be transported through the body to be deposited on to the bone.
As we get older the renewal process of bone generation slows down and the degradation of the bone happens at a faster rate than the building of new bone.
Biocalth ® Calcium L'Threonate enables the much needed calcium to pass through the intestine faster and more effectively than any other calcium supplement.
This is because the unique chemical structure is absorbed through the intestine passively ie: requires no additional energy, such as Vit D, to help it absorb through to the blood stream.
The blood therefore becomes concentrated much faster with Biocalth ® Calcium L'threonate and as a result builds the bones faster and more effectively to combat the ageing erosion of bone cells.
