  • Combination of ingredients to slow or prevent bone density loss (osteoporosis)
  • Provides 50% of daily calcium needs
  • Ipriflavone shown to increase calcium retention and slow done deterioration
  • Ipriflavone promotes bone building cell activity

During their lifetime women run a 40% risk of developing osteoporosis, a loss of bone mass. Nearly half of women age 50 or older will suffer from it. Osteoporosis can also affect men with one in eight experiencing bone fractures due to osteoporosis. Among the elderly, one-quarter die as a direct or indirect result of hip fractures resulting from osteoporosis. Ostivone also includes ipriflavone, a synthetic derivative of genestein or daidzein. Genestein and daidzein are isoflavones, natural plant components that have antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-allergy properties. Ipriflavone has been studied extensively by the natural health industry particularly for helping symptoms of osteoporosis.

Research studies have shown positive results from ipriflavone supplementation in maintaining or increasing bone mineral density, particularly when combined with a calcium supplement. In studies, ipriflavone was shown to have potential to prevent rapid bone loss after menopause, to increase bone density in post-menopausal women, to decrease bone fracturing and to relieve bone pain from osteoporosis.

Ostivone also provides needed calcium for strong bones. According to the National Institutes of Health, it is not unusual for many individuals to consume less than half the calcium they need for building and maintaining healthy bones. Heavy use of caffeine, such as in coffee, large intake of sodium phosphates found in carbonated drinks and alcohol can cause drops in the calcium the body retains.

Getting enough calcium in the diet is important for treating and/or preventing a number of health issues. Research has shown calcium may impact conditions such as osteoporosis, hypoarathyroidism, premenstrual syndrome (PMS), high blood pressure, high cholesterol, stroke, colon problems, obesity, tooth and gum disease and insomnia. Calcium is the most plentiful mineral in the body. To function properly, calcium must be accompanied by several other nutrients including Vitamins A, C, D and K, phosphorus and magnesium.
