Calcium is the primary mineral responsible for strong bones.* The body also uses Calcium for proper muscle contraction and nerve function, and obtains this Calcium mainly from the bones.* Because the body can’t produce Calcium, an adequate intake of Calcium can play a role in maintaining bone health.* For optimal bone health, the U.S. Surgeon General recommends Calcium and Vitamin D (U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, The 2004 Surgeon General's Report on Bone Health and Osteoporosis: What It Means to You. U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Office of the Surgeon General, 2004). Nature's Bounty offers Calcium in a variety of formulations, including capsules, tablets, chewable wafers, softgels and liquid. They are also available in combination with Magnesium, Zinc, Vitamin D and Vitamin A.
