Ovomet-D

Ovomet-D is the combination of Calcium carbonate and Vitamin D3 but calcium carbonate is obtained from an organic eggshell source. Along with Calcium it contains small amounts of essential salts and minerals for bone development, including Magnesium, Phosphorus & Strontium. It is 100% natural, highly digestible (98%), more absorbable and environment-friendly form of Calcium. It enriches the organic matrix of bones by helping the fixation of Calcium and increasing bone density. It also contains soluble transport proteins for maximum absorption compared with other Calcium sources. Its absorption rate is higher than that of Algae, Coral, or Rock-based Calcium.

: Vitamin & Mineral

500mg

Indications

Ovomet-D is indicated for the treatment and prevention of:·  Osteoporosis·  Osteomalacia·  Rickets·  Tetany·  Parathyroid diseases·  Supplement in pregnancy & lactation due to increased demand·  Other calcium deficiency symptoms

Pharmacology

Adequate Calcium in the blood is so vital to a wide variety of bodily functions that our internal biochemistry will not tolerate a deficiency even for short periods. Clinical evidence suggests that Calcium is useful for the prevention and treatment of Osteoporosis and associated fractures. Vitamin D is also essential for healthy bones as it aids in Calcium absorption from the GI tract. In addition to this it stimulates bone formation. Clinical studies also show that Calcium and vitamin D has synergistic effects on bone growth as well as in Osteoporosis and fracture prevention.
