Boost Your Bones with CalciAIM

Around 99 percent of the calcium in the human body is stored in the skeletal system, while the remaining amount circulates in blood and other body fluids both inside and outside of cells. The many benefits of this dissolved calcium include the normal function of blood vessels, muscles and nerves. The roughly 99:1 percent ratio of calcium's presence is carefully regulated by the body to prevent calcium buildup outside of the bones.
Bones are living tissue that is continuously being remodeled over a lifetime. This action allows bone structure adjustments to balance the changing requirements of the body. For example, damage to bone matrix is repaired to prevent the accumulation of old bone tissue.
Bone remodeling involves special cells: cube shaped osteoblasts that build bone structure and dome-shaped osteoclasts that remove bone to make room for creating new bone tissue. Bone structure problems arise when bone matrix removed by osteoclasts exceeds what is built by osteoblasts. A dietary calcium deficiency and aging are primary factors in this imbalance.
Loss of bone density, which commonly begins around the time people reach their
fifth decade, occurs silently and slowly over time, without usually being noticed
until a person is tested or suffers a fracture. Calcium supplementation can
help maintain sufficient levels of this essential mineral that is used to remodel
strong, well-structured bones.
The Supplemental Difference of CalciAIM
When AIM introduced CalciAIM back in 2008, consideration of three vital factors resulted in formulating a calcium supplement that works best for our body.1. Powder not Tablets
Research and development for a calcium supplement led to the creation of CalciAIM, containing three powdered forms of calcium: carbonate, gluconate and lactate. Calcium powders solubilize easily in water. When ingested, this "pre-digested-in-water" calcium allows for increased absorption and utilization by your body.The Food & Nutrition Research journal (2014) published a comparative study showing that the absorption of calcium in powder form was significantly greater than in tablets.
2. Enhanced Calcium Absorption
Calcium is better absorbed with the presence of specific compounds, so CalciAIM powder also delivers nutrients such as vitamin D and magnesium along with L-lysine HCL, an essential amino acid.The CalciAIM ingredient combination is formulated to enhance the absorption of calcium so that your body can utilize this essential mineral for maintaining strong, healthy bones and proper skeletal function.
3. Safe and Effective Amounts
Research determined that calcium is best taken in an amount of 500mg or less at one time for safe and effective absorption. One serving of CalciAIM contains around 400mg of calcium powder, allowing you to safely supplement the recommended daily amounts according to age and gender.The recommended amount for men ages 19 to 70 is 1,000mg of calcium daily. This 1,000mg amount is the same for women up to the age of 50 and increases to 1,200mg from the ages of 51 to 70. Both men and women over the age of 70 should aim for the recommended amount of 1,200mg.
