Product description

OsteoProCare™

Product overview

OsteoProCare™ is a liquid supplement containing orotic acid (Vitamin B13). Orotic acid facilitates the transport of minerals across the cell membranes in your body, thus making these minerals optimally bio-available.

OsteoProCare™ also contains Chondroitin and Glucosamine which have been carefully formulated to increase the bio-availability of dietary calcium and other nutrients the body requires for optimum structural support. This formulation provides the support of bones and joints.

This peppermint and almond flavored liquid formulation has a pleasant taste and combines calcium orotate with other essential minerals and vitamins including:

• 4 crucial minerals necessary for proper bone metabolism:
  
  
  1. zinc
  2. magnesium
  3. copper
  4. manganese
  
  
• 45 different trace minerals
• Vitamin D3
• Chondroitin
• Glucosamine

All bone-and-joint building nutrients in OsteoProCare™ are suspended in a colloidal form that allows for optimum absorption.

Why is this product so special?

OsteoProCare™ is a the nutritional support system Souzao Enterprises is promoting for providing calcium to the body and an array of health benefits:

OsteoProCare™ provides 1,200 mg of calcium per 1 ounce serving. A highly bio-available form of calcium can support health in many ways. Additionally, the U.S. FDA has allowed the following health claim regarding calcium intake and osteoporosis:

"Regular exercise and a healthy diet with enough calcium helps teen and young adult White and Asian women maintain good bone health and may reduce their risk of osteoporosis later in life."

OsteoProCare™ includes numerous support factors for improved utilization of calcium, including:

• 600 mg of magnesium per ounce
• Vitamin D
• Zinc
• Copper
• Manganese
• Boron

OsteoProCare™ provides the following benefits:

• includes over 60 macro, micro and ultra trace minerals and nutrients
• supports bone strength
• supports healthy teeth
• improves muscular function
• includes glucosamine, which supports joint flexibility
• includes chondroitin, which supports cartilage structure
• contributes to alkalizing the body’s pH

OsteoProCare™, calcium and osteoporosis:

Calcium is the most needed mineral for your bones and teeth. In fact, calcium is the most abundant mineral in the whole body. Besides being absolutely necessary for healthy bones and teeth, this mineral is involved in many other vital functions throughout the body such as:

• improved joint health
• immune function
• protein metabolism
• sleep quality

A calcium deficiency can manifest itself in many ways, including osteoporosis. This disease is a slow process of leaching calcium from the human bone. It happens over a long period of time and doesn't usually provide any warning signs. Often the first symptom is a broken bone. Some cases of osteoporosis are so advanced that broken ribs can result from the simple act of sneezing.

Half of American women over age 50 suffer from osteoporosis and 10 million people in the United States have been diagnosed with this silent thief. Another 18 million people have low bone mass. Some four out of five sufferers are women ranging from preteens to mature adults. Fracture complications resulting from osteoporosis have resulted in more deaths than breast, uterine and ovarian cancer combined.

The BioLiquid Advantage:

OsteoProCare™ provides the needed calcium as a reasonable preventative measure, and what is more important, provides it in a form that is very absorbable - as a liquid.

OsteoProCare™ is a highly concentrated formula and has the benefit of the manufacturer's production technology, called BioLiquid Advantage, which consists of four specific functional components:

1. Concentration – OsteoProCare™ has 1,200 mg of calcium, and 600 mg of magnesium concentrated in only one ounce. This is in addition to all of the other health supporting nutrients. A proprietary “sequentially miscible” process of combining key ingredients achieves this concentration.
   
   
2. Sequential mixing – this is the process of combining key ingredients to achieve concentration and the ability to mix fat and water soluble components. As with cooking recipes, the sequence of adding ingredients is important to the outcome.
   
   
3. Supportive compounds – the use of various support ingredients add synergy to the OsteoProCare™ formula, including the addition of orotic acid.
   
   
4. Stable freshness – careful use of stabilizers, in proper ratios for liquids, maintains freshness.
   

The use of calcium in the body is directly related to its ability to pass through cell membranes. This element transport requires chelation, and usually the chelating agent is an acid. Minerals with acid chelates are often identified with an "ate" suffix, such as calcium orotate. Calcium orotate is formed when calcium ions (positively charged) are bound by orotic acid ions (negatively charged) in a liquid medium. When in a liquid medium, the type of calcium makes little difference. Much like salt ions become free in water, the calcium ions and the acid ions become "free ions." To formulate a high-potency calcium supplement, a source high in calcium is required, and the highest is calcium carbonate. Once in solution, the calcium ions become free ions and are readily chelated by the available orotic acid ions and form calcium orotate. Research shows that calcium orotate is efficiently transported across cell membranes and work directly with the mitochondria within the cell. OsteoProCare™ contains orotic acid as a chelating agent.

OsteoProCare™ and arthritis:

Arthritis is also a serious problem exacerbated by calcium deficits. Arthritis affects over 60 million Americans. This disease is also a slow developer. As joint-cushioning cartilage wears away, bone begins rubbing on bone and painful inflammation occurs, which can be very debilitating. Additionally, the connective tissues involved in joint function become compromised, usually because of a lack of certain nutrients the body needs to continue its rebuilding processes.

Chondroitin sulfate and glucosamine hydrochloride help provide the nutrition needed to support and maintain the joints. Chondroitin is a glycosaminoglycan that appears to play an essential role in the formation of joint cartilage.

Glucosamine is an amino acid derivative of glucose that appears to play an essential role in the formation of connective tissue.

OsteoProCare™ is in a liquid form, which is highly significant. Studies have shown that up to 98% of nutrients are absorbed if in a liquid form, whereas absorption of pills and tablets can be as low as 10-20%. As a peppermint flavored liquid, it is very easy to take straight or mixed in a favorite liquid.

Key ingredients of OsteoProCare™:

Calcium:

Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the human body. Its value cannot be overestimated as it is used in so many metabolic functions. However, calcium’s use in the body is directly related to its ability to be absorbed via the intestinal tract, and then pass through cell membranes. This requires being chelated, and usually the chelating agent is an acid. Minerals with acid chelates are often identified with an “ate” suffix, such as calcium orotate.

Calcium orotate:

Orotic acid, when combined with calcium yields a product called calcium orotate which facilitates calcium absorption into the body. Calcium is important for bone and teeth development, and it aids against the onset of osteopororis.

Orotic acid:

Orotic acid (Vitamin B13) is not really recognized as a vitamin, and is manufactured in the body by the intestinal flora. Orotic acid helps with the production of genetic material and may be beneficial after a heart attack. It is also used in conditions such as multiple sclerosis and chronic hepatitis.

Glucosamine:

Glucosamine is present in the product as glucosamine hydrochloride and is important in the manufacturing of cartilage. The body manufactures glucosamine in small quantities. However, as we age that amount is decreased. The function of glucosamine in the body is to stimulate the production of glucosaminoglycans (GAGs), which are primarily structural components of cartilage. Glucosamine is therefore involved in the formation of ligaments, tendons, nails, skin, eyes, bones and heart valves.

Chondroitin sulfate:

Chondroitin sulfate is a glucosaminoglycan. It is composed of repeating units of glucosamine. Chondroitin sulfate is taken up by cartilage and other joint structures. Once in the cartilage, it stimulates the production of more Chondroitin sulfate.
