Specifically designed for the unique nutritional needs of women,
OsteoSoy® supports bone health and helps the body to naturally
promote an ideal hormonal balance.
Support bone health with two forms of calcium specially selected for their
superior bioavailability
Supported by 12 specific vitamins and minerals that work in conjunction with
calcium to maintain bone health
Promote hormonal balance with botanical extracts and phytoestrogens
Take
the calcium supplement that is proven to dissolve and get absorbed
Micro-coating makes tablets easy to swallow
The skeletal system is a storehouse of mineral nutrients
essential for many of the body's vital functions. Like cash in a
bank, the body withdraws minerals as it needs them, and
re-deposits them when it is able. While we are growing, the body
deposits more than it withdraws. As we age, the body gradually
begins to use more bone than it can replace. In women, bone mass
begins to decline at about 35 years of age and accelerates
rapidly during the 8 to 10 years around the time of menopause.
The result can be excessive bone loss.
Recognizing this problem, Dr. Earl Mindell set about to
formulate a complete bone care formulation for every woman. The
result is FreeLife's new OsteoSoy®. Far from just another
calcium supplement, new OsteoSoy® provides 12 specific vitamins
and minerals that work synergistically with its two bioavailable
forms of calcium to promote healthy bones.
Since bone depletion is not the only nutritional concern of
women, OsteoSoy® also contains special standardized extracts of
some of the world's foremost traditional female herbs: chaste
berry, licorice and dong-quai. These rare botanicals contain
natural compounds (phytoestrogens) which can help to promote a
woman's optimum hormonal balance. Among all leading women's
supplements, only OsteoSoy®'s comprehensive system of vitamins,
minerals and plant phytoestrogens is able to provide the
nutritional support a woman needs to master all the changes her
body will undergo at every stage in life!
OsteoSoy® is the first women's bone-support supplement to
provide isoflavones from the miracle soybean and the Chinese kudzu vine. One
daily dosage of OsteoSoy® contains the equivalent of 6 oz. of tofu, which is
twice the average intake of Asian women and is 60 times the average American
daily soy quota!
And in yet another demonstration of the miracle of the soybean, OsteoSoy® solves
the difficult problem of calcium tablet disintegration with its exclusive
Soyatab™ technology. Specialized soy fibers called polysaccharides are
strategically dispersed throughout the tablet. There they act like little wicks,
drawing external moisture into the tablet core. These "wicks" expand with the
moisture, allowing the tablet to swell and to quickly disintegrate for optimum
nutrient availability.
