Essential Role of Calcium and Collagen |
|
Regular intake of calcium and collagen everyday is the key to prevent and treat
calcium and collagen deficiency. Calcium and collagen is essential in helping to
build and strengthen our bones and fortified our tendons and cartilage
respectively. As we age, we require calcium, collagen and certain minerals as
supplements due to our imbalance diet and that our body can no longer produce
enough quantities for the body to repair itself. As a consequence of this our
body begins to deteriorate giving rise to health problems such as brittle bones
and joints discomfort. It is vital to supplement food with calcium, collagen and
minerals.

Why do we require Calcium and Collagen?
Calcium
Calcium is found mostly in our bones. Our food intake provides us with calcium.
Calcium provides nutrients for our heart to beat and muscles to function. Our
bones are constantly eroded throughout our life and are replaced with new bone
tissue. If our diet is calcium deficient, our calcium needs for proper body
function is taken from the bones. Our bones will degenerate if calcium is not
replaced and hence lead to health problems such as brittle bones or
osteoporosis.
Collagen
The cartilage between our joints is mostly made up of collagen. The cartilage
acts as a cushion between our joints as we move. Having a healthy cartilage is
important to ensure healthy joints where we can have unrestricted movements
without discomfort.
