Calcium supplements alone do not efficiently support bone growth and bone mineral density… This is a hard fact that I cannot stress enough. Optimal bone mineral density requires myriad nutrients in sufficient quantities. Vitamin D3 supports optimal absorption, Vitamin K2 ferries calcium from the arteries into the bone, and magnesium is critical for crystalline bone mineral matrix formation. Premium collagen is also essential as it helps form the flexible “scaffolding” that the mineral matrix is built upon.
Calcium, without its important cofactors, can actually harm heart and arterial health. That’s right. Without the symbiotic nutrients calcium needs to properly absorb and make its way into your bones, calcium can end up depositing into soft tissue or adhering to arterial plaque and contributing to the hardening of arteries (atherosclerosis). This can end up leading to cardiovascular disease over time which is why it’s so important to take a calcium supplement or bone health formula that contains these critical cofactors.
Most calcium supplements on the market come from limestone deposits… You read that correctly. Most calcium supplements on the market today are literally inorganic calcium chloride, and calcium oxide from limestone deposits. These forms of calcium are famously difficult for your body to absorb and utilize, and may even be detrimental to your health.
OsteoDura™ features Calcium from Aquamin® TG Sea Minerals. Forget about calcium from limestone. My calcium is sourced from red marine algae. Aquamin is a multi-mineral complex which is derived from the red marine algae, Lithothamnion calcareum. It contains 72 trace minerals absorbed from the sea that make the calcium in Aquamin more bioactive than calcium derived from limestone.
What is Collagen? Collagen is an insoluble, and fibrous protein that makes up one-third of the protein in the human body. Your body synthesizes Collagen from special amino acids found in various foods. Our bodies also need certain minerals and vitamin C to manufacture collagen. Spectrum 5 Collagen™ comes from pasture-raised cows that are grass-fed, and never given GMO feed or antibiotics; wild-caught, sustainably sourced whitefish from the cold, deep waters of Canada; and free-range, cage-free, hormone-free USA chickens.
Why is it important to use hydrolyzed Collagen? Dietary collagen is difficult to digest and not very absorbable. It also mixes poorly into liquids. Hydrolyzing collagen involves breaking up the difficult to digest proteins into easily digested peptides, or chains of beneficial amino acids. This ensures far greater absorption and bioavailability. Hydrolyzing collagen also guarantees that it mixes easily into hot or cold beverages without clumping!

FAQ’s
What is Aquamin™ TG Sea Minerals?
Lithothamnion calcareum, or Red Sea Algae, is harvested in the pure waters of the north Atlantic ocean. Lithothamnion absorbs calcium and magnesium into its cell walls to create a rigid honeycomb cell structure. It’s this unique structure and the 72 trace minerals absorbed from the sea that make the calcium in Aquamin more bioactive than calcium derived from limestone and why I included it in my first-ever full-spectrum bone health supplement.
What is Collagen?
Collagen is an insoluble, and fibrous protein that makes up one-third of the protein in the human body. Your body synthesizes Collagen from special amino acids found in various foods.

Is the Bone Health Kit safe for kids, pregnant women, and nursing mothers?
The bone health supplements in the bone health kit are generally appropriate for kids, pregnant women and nursing mothers, however I implore you to speak with your or your child’s healthcare provider to decide dosing, and to make sure that it is appropriate given your or your child’s health history and potential medication interactions. This bone support supplement kit contains Vitamin K1 which can be contraindicated if you are taking prescription blood thinning medication.
