Vitabiotics Osteocare Plus Glucosamine & Chondroitin Tablets Pack of 60

Two formulas in one tablet

Many people taking a calcium supplement are also looking after their cartilage and connective tissue, and end up buying two products. This formula brings both together. Three tablets provide 800mg of calcium, the full nutrient reference value, alongside 750mg of glucosamine sulphate, 300mg of chondroitin sulphate and ginger root extract.

Bones

Calcium, magnesium, zinc and vitamin D all contribute to the maintenance of normal bones, and vitamin D contributes to the normal absorption and utilisation of calcium. The vitamin D is D3 (cholecalciferol) from an algal source, at 25mcg per daily intake.

Cartilage and connective tissue

Cartilage is the flexible connective tissue found between bones. Vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of bones and cartilage, and copper contributes to the maintenance of normal connective tissues. This formula provides 80mg of vitamin C and 1000mcg of copper alongside its glucosamine and chondroitin content.
