Description
Calcitriol + Calcium Carbonate + Vitamin K2 + Soya Isoflavones+ Magnesium Oxide Softgel Capsule comes with the branding “SAGECAL-K27” and falls under the category of dietary supplements, used to prevent bone loss in women going through perimenopause and postmenopause. Perimenopause is the phase around menopause when estrogen production decreases, and ovaries cease releasing eggs.
Postmenopause occurs when women haven’t had a period for 12 months or more. Osteoporosis, common in postmenopausal women, is a bone disease that weakens and thins bones by reducing bone density, making them more prone to fractures.
Calcitriol + Calcium Carbonate + Vitamin K2 + Soya Isoflavones+ Magnesium Oxide Softgel Capsule is a combination of five medications: Calcitriol, Calcium Carbonate, Magnesium, Soya Isoflavones, and Vitamin K2. Calcitriol, a synthetic form of Vitamin D3, treats calcium deficiency by elevating Vitamin D levels, consequently increasing blood calcium levels and enhancing calcium absorption from the stomach.
Calcium carbonate, a mineral, is used to prevent or treat calcium deficiency, providing crucial nutrients for bone formation· Magnesium, another mineral, supports normal muscle function· Soya isoflavones enhance heart health and strengthen bones in postmenopausal women· Vitamin K2 contributes to maintaining bone density.
