Which Supplements Support Bone Health?
The essential bone supplements that work in tandem with calcium include:
- Vitamin D - vitamin D supplements help the body to absorb calcium efficiently. Working in combination, vitamin D and calcium are vital bone supplements.
- Vitamin K2 - vitamin K supplements activate a protein that both helps to remove calcium from blood vessels, and for the calcium to bond to our bones. As a bone supplement K2 has been linked to supporting bone density and reducing the risk of bone fractures.
- Magnesium - magnesium deficiency can contribute to osteoporosis, and means you miss out on the important benefits of magnesium. This is why it is important to take it as a bone supplement. Magnesium supplements can also help to improve bone density.
Healthy bones rely on more than just calcium intake. Calcium alone will not improve bone strength as the body requires additional vitamins and minerals to ensure calcium is effectively absorbed into the bones, avoiding buildup in muscles and arteries.
Do I Need Bone Supplements?
Whilst everyone should ensure they’re getting the right levels of vitamins and minerals for bone health, some groups are more at risk of bone issues. For those who are pregnant, bone supplements, especially calcium, are vital. This is because your growing child also needs calcium. Pregnancy supplements can boost your mineral levels easily. As we get older our bones tend to need more care, particularly for women. Postmenopausal women can lose bone density and so taking bone supplements should become part of their daily routine to help protect bones. Our menopause supplements collection contains other vitamins to support you through this stage of life.
