About Metagenics Calcitite Protect 120t
Microcrystalline hydroxyapatite is a comprehensive whole bone concentrate, delivering highly absorbable forms of calcium, phosphorous and bioactive growth factors including transforming growth factor-b, insulin like growth factors, type I collagen, glycosaminoglycans and trace minerals to positively impact bone density. Vitamin D is involved in the efficiency of intestinal calcium absorption and also in the parathyroid hormone regulation of serum calcium levels. In low vitamin D state, the intestine absorbs 10-15% of dietary calcium, compared to 30-40% with adequate vitamin D levels.
