Medicinal Benefits

  • Calcium has several important functions such as building bones, keeping teeth healthy, and regulating muscle contractions.
  • Calcitriol is used to treat and prevent low levels of calcium and bone diseases.
  • Vitamin K is a group of vitamins necessary for blood clotting and wound healing. It may also help keep bones healthy.
  • Methylcobalamin is used to treat vitamin B12 deficiency. Vitamin B12 is important for the brain and nerves, and the production of red blood cells. Methylcobalamin is sometimes used in people with pernicious anaemia, diabetes, and other conditions.
  • Magnesium is important for healthy bones. People with higher intakes of magnesium have a higher bone mineral density, which is important in reducing the risk of bone fractures and osteoporosis.
