CALCIPLEX BONE & JOINT™

THE PALATABLE CALCIUM & PHOSPHOROUS SUPPLEMENT FOR STRONG BONES & HEALTHY JOINTS.

wpe2.jpg (3970 bytes)CALCIPLEX BONE & JOINT™ combines two forms of calcium with phosphorus, magnesium, vitamins A, D, and trace minerals for uptake, regulation and balance of these vital bone and joint cartilage components.

Bone development, maintenance of skeletal strength and the 'bone bank' of stored calcium relies on adequate intake of calcium, phosphorus and magnesium as does optimum muscle function and the increased needs of mares during late pregnancy and lactation.

The health, natural flexibility and resilience of joint cartilage to wear and tear is maintained by intake of the vitamin A, copper, manganese and zinc, whilst the vitamin D aids in utilisation of macro minerals.
