Jarrow Formulas Bone-Up
Jarrow Formulas Bone-Up is a capsule food supplement built around calcium for people looking after their bones. Its calcium comes from StimuCal, a microcrystalline hydroxyapatite (MCHA) sourced from free-range New Zealand calves, and it is joined by vitamins D3 and K2.
Key features
- Calcium from StimuCal MCHA, a naturally derived calcium source
- StimuCal also supplies bone proteins, including type I collagen
- Vitamins D3 and K2 included alongside the calcium
- Calcium, vitamin D and vitamin K contribute to the maintenance of normal bones
- Vitamin D contributes to the normal function of the immune system
Hydroxyapatite is the same mineral structure found in bone itself, which is why MCHA is sometimes chosen in place of calcium carbonate. Vitamins D3 and K2 are included because they work with calcium in the body. This is the original Bone-Up formula from Jarrow Formulas.
Available in 120 caps and 240 caps.
