Nutrient intake, hormonal factors, and physical activity all play important roles in regulating bone health. Women are at a greater risk for bone loss during their lifetime and should begin supporting their bones at a very early age. Nutrients such as calcium, magnesium, and Vitamin D-3 are vital to maintaining and promoting healthy, strong bones. Regular exercises that use some weights also help tell your body to enhance bone structure, particularly the legs, hips, and spine.

HIGH POTENCY ESSENTIAL FATTY ACIDS
Diets with low levels of omega-3 fatty acids have been linked to increased resorption of bone tissue. Many researchers speculate that this is related to the connection omega-3's have on reducing inflammatory chemicals produced by the body. Omega-3 fatty acids in the diet help to calm inflammation and have been linked to lower rates of osteoporosis. Taking a high quality omega-3 capsule, such as Pathway SUPER OMEGA-3, will help to reduce chronic inflammation and support a healthy skeletal system. Pathway SUPER OMEGA-3 is molecularly distilled for purity and is guaranteed to be free of heavy metals, pesticide residues, and other harmful contaminates. For ideal effects, it contains high concentrations of EPA & DHA (300 mg & 200 mg respectively).

VITAMIN D3
Vitamin D-3 is essential to bone health as it stimulates the absorption and utilization of both calcium and phosphorus. Beyond its bone building benefits, Vitamin D-3 also helps protect against muscle weakness, various types of cancer, and enhances immunity. Vitamin D-3 is a natural form but is less commonly found in most vitamin formulas and is considered to be better than Vitamin D-2. Xymogen MYCELLE D-3 provides 400IU of Vitamin D-3 in just one drop.
