Description
SHIFT™ Calcium Extra is a complete supplement for bones and bone building. Calcium is essential for bone building, but it needs support from other nutrients. SHIFT™ Calcium Extra contains patented forms of calcium: calcium malate and calcium bisglysinate chelate for optimal absorption in the body, as well as being gentle on the stomach and intestines. The supplement also contains the mineral boron, vitamin K2-MenaQ7 and vegan vitamin D (Vitashine). These raw materials strengthen the bones and prevent calcium deposits in the blood vessels, increase calcium absorption and transport calcium to the bones, and prevent thin and soft bone tissue.

Did you know that
- Calcium is an important building block for bones and teeth.
- Bones are living tissue that is constantly being renewed. The body breaks down old bone tissue and builds new, and this process is called bone remodeling.
- The skeleton is at its strongest in youth and weakens over the years as we get older.
- Calcium bisglysinate chelate found in SHIFT™ Calcium Extra is a well-documented calcium compound that has high bioavailability in the body.
For bone and muscle function
A strong bone structure is essential for good health, but with age and hormonal changes, bone tissue can weaken. If the bone tissue weakens by more than 25 percent, it is defined as osteoporosis. 99 percent of the body's calcium is found in bone tissue, and calcium is the most important building block for developing and maintaining a strong bone structure. SHIFT™ Calcium Extra contains a combination of two different calcium compounds: calcium malate and calcium bisglysinate. These are patented and documented calcium compounds developed by the world's leading manufacturer of effectively absorbing minerals, Albion Laboratories Inc. These forms of calcium are efficiently absorbed by the body, with minimal side effects in the form of flatulence in the gut, which can be a problem with other calcium compounds.
In addition to calcium, building strong bones requires a supply of other important components. Vitamin K2, vitamin D and boron are among the most important. SHIFT™ Calcium Extra contains added Vitamin K2-MenaQ7, which contributes to the normal function of the bone-forming cells in the body, as well as preventing the loss of calcium in the bloodstream. In Western countries, it is said that we get too little vitamin K2. Vitashine vegan vitamin D is added to promote the absorption of calcium from the gut into the body. Furthermore, vitamin D also helps to transport calcium to the bone structure and mineralize the calcium to bone tissue. Without sufficient vitamin D3, bone tissue will become thin and soft. Boron is an exciting element that appears to affect how calcium and magnesium act in relation to the formation of new bone tissue, as well as helping to keep calcium in place in bone tissue. There is evidence to suggest that boron also affects the production of hormones so that the loss of bone tissue is reduced as we age. Boric acid is bound to glycine for better absorption and is manufactured by Albion Laboratories Inc.
