New Chapter Bone Strength Take Care, 120 Slim Tablets
3New Chapter Bone Strength Take Care, 120 Slim Tablets
Many people think that all calcium supplements are created equal. The truth is that the most common form of calcium supplement today is derived from limestone or rock. We don’t eat rocks as part of our balanced diet, so why would we choose to supplement our bone health nutritional needs with limestone? The calcium complex in Bone Strength Take Care is plant-sourced and whole-food…..not limestone.

Hip Pain Gone In Just Days!!,
For years I’ve suffered with hip pain and it had gotten to the point where I was desperate to get rid of it and ask the doc for a pain killer. I suffered a horseback riding accident when younger and couldn’t walk for nearly a month. After three children and some weight gain due to a doc misdiagnosis of a blood test for hypothyroidism, my hips were killing me and I was getting only 4-5 hours of sleep a night. Since I am now entering menopause I thought it prudent to try a different calcium supplement after stumbling upon an article about silica being necessary for life (research shows that a dose of 400-500 mg. of daily silica increased bone mass by an average of 30% in only 4 weeks) and how it greatly improves the bodily uptake of calcium and other nutrients. Strontium was also mentioned in association with the article as being beneficial to bone strength. So began the search for a calcium supplement with silica and this is what I found. Granted, it is expensive, but so are bone fractures and the inability to walk. After only 2 days of taking this my hip pain was gone! Being skeptical, I quit taking it for 3 days and by the second day my hip pain was coming back, so back to taking it I went and the pain disappeared again. It was a totally unexpected benefit of taking this supplement. I don’t know for sure which ingredient is responsible for taking away the hip pain, but I am grateful! I plan to repeat this little experiment in a month to see if the pain comes back and will update this review then. It will also be interesting to see what effect, if any, it will have on my hereditary osteoarthritis of the hands.

A good product, but over-priced,
As other reviewers have noted, New Chapter Bone Strength Take Care tablets include other vitamins and minerals to boost calcium absorption and retention. All calcium tablets seem to add Vitamin D, but these contain Vitamin K as well. I see no need to change to this product after trying it. Note that there are 60 tablets, but this is a three-times-a-day supplement to get 69% of your calcium daily value, so the bottle will last only 20 days if used as directed.
Pros: Absorption and retention qualities enhanced by other ingredients; small and slender easy-to-swallow tablet.
Cons: High price, packaging encourages illogical concern about limestone as calcium source.
Depends on your preference: This is the form that must be taken with a meal.
