greens+ bone builder feeds your body the most important bone-building nutrients, helping to stimulate bone formation (via osteoblasts), inhibit cells which break down bone (osteoclasts), promote alkalinity in the body to retain minerals, prevent oxidative stress and maximize Calcium absorption, and reduce risk for osteoporosis, bone fractures and curvature of the spine.
greens+ bone builder bone builder was found to be 2-3 times more effective at increasing bone growth area than calcium alone 1,2.
Another reason that greens+ bone builder has such a positive effect on bone health is due to the naturally occurring Vitamin K content. Studies show that Vitamin K from green vegetation can reduce fracture rates and can increase bone mineral density.
