Thompsons Calcium For Women 60 tabs

Women have particularly high Calcium requirements throughout life with pregnancy, breastfeeding and menopause placing extra demands on Calcium stores within the body. Insufficient Calcium intake and absorption can lead to muscular problems and the development of porous and brittle bones and consequent bone breakage. Because Calcium and Magnesium are important in muscle contraction and relaxation, they may prove beneficial in the treatment of elevated blood pressure and muscle cramps

Thompson’s Exclusively Women’s Calcium for Women is superior to other Calcium supplements in three key areas. Firstly, this supplement not only contains Calcium but also its co-factors such as Vitamin D, Magnesium, Manganese and Zinc to improve the absorption of Calcium by the body. Secondly, Calcium citrate has a particularly high rate of absorption, even in people with reduced stomach acid production such as the elderly and vegetarians. Lastly, Calcium for Women is one of the highest potency Calcium supplements available in New Zealand, supplying up to 90% of a woman’s daily Calcium needs.
