Osteocare Fizz Effervescent Tablets Pack of 20

Osteocare is Britain's favourite family of products specially formulated with calcium to help maintain normal healthy bones in men and women of all ages.

All Osteocare products have been specially developed so that they can be taken with other Vitabiotics products, allowing you the freedom to continue taking your daily multivitamin whilst ensuring an additional supplement of calcium and supporting nutrients for bone health.

Osteocare Fizz makes a convenient, great tasting natural orange flavour drink and is ideal for those who have difficulty with swallowing tablets.

Osteocare Fizz contains the preferred D3 form of Vitamin D. Vitamin D3, also known as cholecalciferol, is the form of vitamin D that is produced by the skin on exposure to sunlight. D3 is the preferred form of vitamin D because it is the specific form made in the human body and therefore more effective than D2 which is found in some supplements.

Calcium plus co-factors

Osteocare Fizz provides 100% NRV (Nutrient Reference Value) of calcium (based on two tablets) carefully combined with co-factors including vitamin D, zinc and magnesium which help to maintain normal bone health.

Calcium is important for everyone

Ensuring an adequate intake of calcium is vital for men and women of all ages, as evidence suggests that healthy practices early in life, including the adequate consumption of calcium and trace elements, contribute to normal bone health and optimal bone mineralisation. Peak bone mass, obtained during childhood and adolescent growth is known to be of major importance in maintaining bones later in life. The UK Department of Health recommends that people aged 65 years and over should take a daily supplement of 10mcg of vitamin D.

Calcium is vital for older women

Both sexes lose bone mass during their lifetime but after the menopause women usually lose bone mass much faster than men.

Postmenopausal women have an increased risk of bone loss for three reasons:

• Bone mineral content tends to be lower in women than in men
• Dietary calcium intake may decrease with age
• The rate of bone loss accelerates at menopause

Dissolve one tablet in a glass of water. Take once or twice daily, as required. 

Do not exceed recommended intake.

Food supplements must not replace a balanced and varied diet and a healthy lifestyle. 

As with other food supplements, seek professional advice before using if you are under medical supervision, pregnant, breast-feeding, suffer from food allergies, or are allergic to any of the ingredients.
