Zedcal Tablets 30s

Zedcal is a modern scientific formulation of calcium with Magnesium, zinc and Vitamin D3. Calcium plays a major role in the skeletal growth and maintenance of muscle and nerve function. Calcium deficiency in childhood affects the development of teeth and bone. In adults, it results in weakening of bones, frequent fractures and joint pains .
Bone reaches its peak at about 35 years and declines thereafter with thinning and weakening of the skeleton.
Bone loss sets in the advancing age but its particularly accelerated in women after the menopause.
There is an increased need for calcium during adolescent growth and in old age.It is particularly vital for pregnant and lactating ladies and women around menopause. Calcium and magnesium balance is most important for the effective utilization of calcium and in preventing the formation of calcium oxalate stones. Deficiency of calcium and magnesium can adversely affect heart and blood pressure. Vitamin D3 and zinc are essential for optimum absorption and normal metabolism of calcium in the body.
