Understanding OHC
Ossein Hydroxyapatite Complex is (OHC) a matrix of Calcium as well as other minerals and organic compounds to promote the bone structure and integrity. It also contains collagen and bone-growth peptides that are the main components of human bones. It is a nutritional supplement that is similar to the human bone thus it is easily absorbed and assimilated by the body. Its composition is living and bioactive thus it easily promotes bone integration. Because of its efficacy, it is a well-known treatment for osteoporosis.

Better Than Calcium
Many peer-reviewed studies have explored the efficacy and potential of OHC as a better alternative to Calcium carbonate. The consensus of many studies is that supplements contain OHC is more effective in preventing bone loss than Calcium supplements. In one particular study, researchers noted that patients who have been using OHC have improved bone structures and health after 20 months of administration of OHC supplements daily. This makes it a better alternative, especially among people whose Calcium profile is very low and they, are the risk of osteoporosis. However, the mechanism of OHC is not yet fully known.

Contains More Than Calcium
Unlike conventional Calcium supplements, this OHC supplement contains more than Calcium. It contains Vitamin C (200mg), Vitamin D3 (1000iU), Natural Mk-7 (45mcg), elemental Calcium (1000mg), Magnesium (500mg), Zinc (10mg), Copper (1mg), Potassium (99mg), Manganese (1mg), and Boron (3mg). All of these minerals are necessary for the synthesis of bones and also maintaining its integrity. It is also important to take note that these minerals are also necessary for the many physiological processes in the body. Thus, this supplement does not only improve bone health but also overall health.

Helps Prevent The Progression Of Osteoporosis Faster
This supplement contains more bioavailable forms of minerals such as Vitamin D3 and Mk-7. The bioavailable forms of such minerals support the deposition of the mineral Calcium into the bones. It also helps in the buildup of the organic bone matrix faster. Because of the forms of minerals used in this supplement, it is deemed as faster and more effective in treating osteoporosis than ordinary Calcium supplements thus the healing progress is better.

Appropriate Dosage And Contradiction
While this supplement is very effective, it is crucial for people to know how much the appropriate dosage is. The recommended standard dosage of OHC to prevent osteoporosis is 1800mg daily. It is important that it should not be taken more than the required dosage as it may lead to side effects such as minor headaches. On the other hand, it also has known contradictions especially to certain drugs for blood pressure, Calcium-channel blockers, antacids, and cholesterol-lowering medicines to name a few.
