Bone CoFactors

Bone CoFactors by Douglas Laboratories is formulated to provide the necessary vitamins and minerals combined with a milk protein fraction called MBP® that helps to support bone strength. MBP® has the distinctive function of balancing osteoblast and osteoclast activity, which complements the function of other nutrients in Bone CoFactors for optimized bone health.

Functions

Bones are constantly being remodeled, not only during the growth stages, but also into adulthood. This process of bone turnover involves two types of cells: osteoblasts and osteoclasts. Osteoblasts promote bone formation and create collagen, so that calcium can effectively adhere to the collagen and create new tissue. Osteoclasts destroy old bone tissue by releasing acid and enzymes to dissolve calcium and collagen.

However, osteoclasts can become excessive due to hormonal imbalances and other factors, leading to calcium deficiency in the bone. Therefore, nutrients that suppress excess osteoclast activity and support osteoblast activity are important to the health of the bones.

Indications

Bone CoFactors is a dietary supplement indicated for individuals that require the nutrients necessary for healthy bone strength and metabolism.
