Calcium is an essential component of a healthy diet, especially for women over 50. After menopause, it is not uncommon for women to lose up to 5% of their bone mass each and every year. For this reason, Complete Calcium for Women 50+ has been formulated with additional calcium as well as herbal extracts to help balance hormones.
Age Specific – Women's calcium requirements change significantly as they age. For example, postmenopausal women, due to their reduced estrogen production, experience an increased vulnerability to osteoporosis, losing up to 5% of their bone mass each year.
Gender Specific – Men and women have different calcium needs. Progressive's Complete Calcium for Adult Men and Complete Calcium for Adult Women take these differences into careful consideration by customizing the selection of vitamins, minerals and complementary nutrients to better suit gender-specific requirements.
