What is it?
Almost every calcium supplement in the market is made from marble or limestone. Major British Medical Journal studies, involving thousands of participants, show traditional limestone calcium supplements are increasing heart attack risk. Consumption of large quantities of non-food calcium supplements gets deposited in arterial plaque. This calcified arterial plaque blocks arteries, causing an increased risk of heart attacks and strokes. A recent study published in BMJ reports 30% increased risk of MI (Myocardial Infarction) & the composite of MI or stroke with use of traditional calcium supplements with or without vitamin D. For the 1st time in Pakistan, PlantCal, which is 100% plant sourced calcium, derived from Red Marine Algae with rich in over 70 naturally occurring minerals fortified with vitamin D3, K2,B6 & Zinc. PlantCal is the balanced calcium supplement for optimum bone health. It enhances bone mineral density to a greater extent than other mineral sources. PlantCal is highly effective for nourishing bone and joint health. PlantCal with a highly bio-available, bio-active, and long-lasting form of Vitamin K2 helps to direct calcium into bones where it is needed, and helps to keep calcium away from arteries, where it is not needed.
