| |  Calcium,
the most abundant mineral in the body is critical for the development and maintenance
of strong bones and teeth. Present in all cells in the body, calcium is so
important to healthy metabolism that the body will leach needed calcium from our
bones if dietary supplies are inadequate. GNLD's calcium products provide highly
bio-available calcium, plus "helper" nutrients crucial to the process
of bone development. Now with vitamin D3 to enhance absorption. Each serving of
3 tablets contains 3mcg of vitamin D3. We recommend it to EVERYONE!
However there are certain groups of people who generally have an increased
demand for calcium. These include Pregnant and breast feeding women, women
during and after menopause, people regularly active in sports and all elderly
people.
Osteoporosis means 'porous bones'. It's a disease in which the mass of
bone is decreased. The bones become weak or porous so that they fracture easily.
Osteoporosis can affect the whole of the skeleton but it is the wrist, hip and
spine that are most commonly affected.
Why should I worry I'm still young! Research shows that the prevention of
osteoporosis should begin as soon as life does. Childhood is the best time too
build up bone mass to a maximum strength and density. If you build your bones
when you are young you will be less likely to fracture your bones when you are
older.
Why Calcium?
 | Calcium gives strength and structure to bones and teeth, controls muscle
contraction and blood clotting and plays a role in the transmission of nerve
impulses. However, a large percentage of Europeans fail to meet currently
recommended guidelines for optimal calcium intake. |
Why Magnesium?
| Needed fro muscle contraction. |
| A co-factor in many enzymatic reactions. |
Why GNLD Cal-Mag?
| High potency and purity. Featuring pharmaceutical grade calcium carbonate
GNLD Cal-Mag is concentrated and high in purity. |
| Complete. More than just a calcium, includes "helper" nutrients,
such as Magnesium, which is critical to the process of bone development and
which enhance digestion , absorption and utilisation of the calcium
delivered. |

Nutritional Uses for Calcium:
tissue healing, fevers, cramping, sores and wounds, muscle twitching, PMS
cramps, infections, inflammation and more.
Primary Use:
Cardiovascular System Muscular Skeletal System
Immune System Nervous System
Why we need Calcium:
Calcium deficiency may present itself in a wide variety of ways, including
fever, torn tissues, wounds, low energy, low bone density, infection,
insufficient white blood cell activity, nervous system problems, muscle
cramping, cramping during menstrual cycle, cold sores and more.
Calcium (& Magnesium) are Essential for:
Support enzyme systems, including ATPase (energy production)
Conduct nerve impulses
Regulate hormone secretion
Support bone growth and repair
Heal wounds
Allow proper muscular contraction and relaxation
Support blood clotting
