In fact COXAMIN K is not only the best absorbable calcium product, it is a multi-mineral product. COXAMIN K also contains magnesium, boron, copper, manganese, iodine, zinc and many other minerals, their total number is 74.

COXAMIN K and bone density

Various factors affect how much of the calcium that enters the body actually reaches the blood. With aging, for example, the utilization of all the necessary vitamins and minerals becomes more difficult. The status of the bone density is dependent on several elements: vitamin D₃ is responsible for the absorption of essential minerals for bones - calcium and phosphorus, and vitamin K₂ provides the transport of calcium to the bones.

In the mechanism explaining the synergetic interaction between the three elements - calcium ions, vitamin K₂ and vitamin D₃, participates vitamin K-dependent protein osteocalcin. Osteocalcin is highly sensitive biochemical indicator of the status of vitamin K which, when is in its active form, stimulates bone formation and density. Vitamin D₃, received in the body increases the synthesis of osteocalcin, but if the intake of vitamin K is insufficient the osteocalcin remains inactive (under carboxylated osteocalcin). High levels of under carboxilated osteocalcin are associated with low bone mineral density and thus with higher risk of fractures.

Another protein responsible for bone health is matrix GLA-protein (MGP), which is located in the walls of blood vessels and is required for the "removal" of calcium from arteries and soft tissues, preventing them from calcification (hardening). Vitamin K₂ is required also for the activation of this protein, which "removes" calcium from the vessel walls, thereby retains their elasticity, and at the same time supports the delivery of calcium to the bone.

COXAMIN K delivers minerals to the body and the additional vitamins K₂ and D₃ make these minerals available to the bones.

Why COXAMIN K?

COXAMIN K is a formula thanks to which the physiological cycle for intake and delivery of calcium and other bone minerals is completed. Vitamin K₂ and D₃ are necessary for optimum absorption of calcium. They are not only a part of the composition of COXAMIN K, but also of the highest quality, natural, and in a maximum quantity.

Boron and zinc plays an important role in the bio vitality of the calcium source. Magnesium minimum, vitamin K₂, and vitamin D₃ contribute to optimum absorption of calcium in the body.

Vitamin K₂ contained in COXAMIN K is in the form of menaquinone-7 (MK7). This has been proven the better form of vitamin K in terms of bioavailability and bioactivity, compared to vitamin K₁ or menaquinone-4. Used in COXAMIN K vitamin K is fat soluble MK7, which is natural, obtained by fermentation of B. subtilis natto, and free of any synthetic treatments.

Summary:

• Calcium in COXAMIN K is in a polymorph form which is best for absorption by the body. In addition it naturally contains 74 minerals and trace elements, which promote calcium vitality, and each alone favours the normal mineral balance in the body.
• Vitamin D₃ available in COXAMIN K regulates calcium serum levels. Vitamin D₃ increases the absorption of the calcium in gastrointestinal tract and reduces the loss of calcium through the kidneys.
• COXAMIN K contains vitamin K₂, which is responsible for the correct utilization of the calcium in the body.
• In COXAMIN K is achieved synergy between vitamin D₃ and vitamin K₂, which are partners in the regulation of calcium metabolism, since many of the benefits of vitamin D₃ can be achieved only when the levels of vitamin K₂ in the body are sufficient.
• Ingredients of COXAMIN K are of the highest quality, proven by numerous studies and certificates. The active ingredients are of natural origin and in quantities necessary to achieve the efficiency.
• COXAMIN K does not cause constipation, spares the kidneys and does not contain allergens.
