Why Take This Product

  • Fish bone naturally contains calcium and phosphorus in the right ratio of approximately 2:1 to form hydroxyapatite, which is considered the most bioavailable form of calcium.
  • Naturally occurring high levels of calcium (25.14%), phosphorus (12.75%) and marine collagen (14.2%), are retained. As well as many other naturally occurring minerals and trace elements, including iron, magnesium, selenium, and zinc.
  • Calcium is an essential dietary mineral. It is present mainly in skeleton, which provides structural support for the body. Calcium deficiency is known to lead to osteoporosis, and is very common with an estimated 20% of the worldwide population being calcium deficient.

Available In:

  • Human Consumption Grade
  • Animal Grade

Key Components

CALCIUM

Calcium is an essential dietary mineral. It is present mainly in skeleton, which provides structural support for the body. Calcium is also necessary for muscle contractions, nerve cell signalling, and blood clotting. Calcium deficiency is known to lead to osteoporosis and is very common, with an estimated 20% of the worldwide population being calcium deficient.

PHOSPHORUS

Phosphorus is the second most plentiful mineral in your body. The first is calcium. Your body needs phosphorus for many functions, such as filtering waste and repairing tissue and cells. Phosphorus also helps to keep your bones strong and healthy, manage how your body stores and uses energy, and to move your muscles.

CALCIUM HYDROXYAPATITE

When calcium and phosphorus are naturally present in the right ratio of approximately 2:1, they then form a crystalline structure called hydroxyapatite. Calcium hydroxyapatite from fish bone is considered the most bioavailable form of calcium.

COLLAGEN

Fish collagen is a complex structural protein that helps maintain the strength and flexibility of skin, ligaments, joints, bones, muscles, tendons, blood vessels, gums, eyes, nails and hair. Fish collagen is a Type One collagen, which is the most abundant collagen in the human body. Type One is best known for providing the foundation for beautiful skin, strong connective tissues and sturdy bones. Fish collagen has recently shown its ability to increase the body’s own natural collagen reproduction.
