How will Skeletal Strength help me?
Regular, lifelong activity is essential to keeping bones and muscles functioning optimally. Diet is also extremely important, and a shortage of calcium over an extended period can spell disaster. In fact, a loss of calcium is a serious nutritional problem.
Nature’s Sunshine’s Skeletal Strength provides nutrients the body uses to manufacture bones, muscles, ligaments, tendons, and skin. These nutrients counteract many of the forces that deplete the structural system of strength and flexibility under mechanical stress and the ability to replenish the blood supply.
The structural system is the framework for your body. This Key System Product provides a unique and comprehensive blend of nutrients the body uses to manufacture bones and muscles and to fight the forces that deplete the structural system of strength and flexibility.
This carefully balanced formula includes calcium, which is needed for the maintenance of normal bones and teeth and contributes to normal muscle function and energy-yielding metabolism.
Vitamin A helps towards the maintenance of normal skin, mucous membranes and vision, and the normal function of the immune system - it also contributes to normal iron metabolism.
Vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation and the normal functioning of the bones, cartilage, teeth, and skin. This well-known antioxidant vitamin also contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress and helps to reduce tiredness and fatigue.
This formula also includes B vitamins for energy, vitamin D for the maintenance of bones and muscle function, and a range of minerals for the nutritional support of the skeletal system.
About the Structural System
The structural system provides a framework for the body consisting of bones, muscles, skin, membranes, and connective tissues, collectively giving the body form, mobility and protection. Although bones generally stop growing in length during mid-teens for girls and at around age 20 for boys, they never really stop the growing process, because they are constantly rebuilding themselves. To sustain this growth, the body must have sufficient supplies of certain nutrients including calcium, phosphorus, and vitamin D. If there is a shortage of calcium in the bloodstream, the body will remove it from the bones without replacing it. This can eventually cause bones to become weak and porous. Unchecked, this can lead to a condition known as osteoporosis. When approaching menopause, the rate of bone loss accelerates greatly, partly because of a decreased secretion of the hormone oestrogen, which helps maintain bone mass. Men can also be affected, although the number of men experiencing serious bone loss is only about one fifth that of women.
