Vitakruid Ostamax with Calcium & Magnesium, among othersTraditional herbs fused with modern Western knowledge
Vitakruid fuses the rich knowledge from Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) with modern Western knowledge. This herbal, vitamin, and mineral supplement contains magnesium (bisglycinate), vitamin D, and calcium, among other ingredients. Furthermore, this formula is enriched with ipriflavones and the Chinese herbs salvia, teasel, and drynaria. Vitakruid can therefore proudly label Ostamax as unique; it is the first formula with such a combination of active nutrients.
Relatives for bone health, calcium, and vitamin D
Calcium is known as the most abundant mineral in our body. In fact, it accounts for almost 2% of our total body weight, as it is mainly found in the relatively heavy bones (99%). Unfortunately, the body hardly absorbs single calcium. Therefore, Ostamax contains vitamin D3 in addition to calcium.
Biologically active magnesium bisglycinate
Magnesium comes in various forms, all of which are absorbed differently by the body. Organically bound magnesium bisglycinate is considered one of the three most absorbable forms of magnesium. As a rule, magnesium consumes the minerals present in the body for proper absorption. However, amino acid-bound magnesium bisglycinate works along a different pathway. The body recognizes this form as an amino acid, so it does not need any further minerals during absorption. This maintains a balanced mineral balance!
Herbal trio salvia, teasel, and drynaria
What distinguishes Ostamax from other supplements for bone health is the addition of an herbal trio from Traditional Chinese Medicine.
