Progressive
Complete Calcium for Kids contains the finest specialty and active ingredients
including:
Ester
C – Vitamin C assists in the production of collagen, one of
the key components of bone. This patented form of calcium ascorbate
offers greater absorption and retention than all other forms of vitamin
C. It has a neutral pH (non-acidic) and will have a longer lifespan
in your child’s system.
Vitamin
D3 – Also known as the sunshine vitamin, this nutrient is essential
for the proper uptake of calcium. Vitamin D3 assists in the passage
of calcium from the intestinal tract into the bloodstream.
Magnesium
– This mineral assists in the absorption of calcium, regulates
the transfer of minerals through the cell membrane, aids in the formation
of bone and increases the biochemical activity of vitamin D.
Mineral
Citrates – Only a small percentage of the minerals that we
normally consume are actually absorbed and utilized by our bodies. However,
minerals in citrate form have a much higher absorption rate and are
transported into our cells far more efficiently.
Green
Food and Vegetable Concentrates – This comprehensive combination
of highly alkaline, nutrient-rich green foods includes broccoli, alfalfa,
kelp, spinach, and wakame. They improve blood pH and detoxify impurities
normally found in a child’s diet. These vegetables themselves are
a source of highly absorbable botanical calcium.
Digestive
Support – These include the plant-based digestive enzymes bromelain
and papain, as well as Bioperine®, the patented piperine extract
that improves the passage of nutrients across the intestinal wall and
into the blood stream, thus increasing the absorption of the entire
formula.
EFA
Complex – The essential fatty acids found in flax seed and
sunflower oil (CLA) play a very important role in both bone formation
and maintenance. As well, EFAs are beneficial for improving focus, concentration
and sharpening mental acuity.
Traditional
calcium supplements for children include calcium along with a few basic
additional nutrients. Unfortunately, our children’s nutritional
needs are anything but basic. With that in mind, the Progressive Chewable
Calcium for Kids goes far beyond the limited scope of conventional children’s
calcium supplements and offers a more comprehensive strategy for supporting
the nutritional needs of developing children:
Specifically
Designed for Children – Although calcium is the cornerstone of
this supplement, a uniquely tailored array of complementary nutrients,
including essential fatty acids, digestive enzymes and green food and
vegetable concentrates allow this formulation to address a number of
additional nutritional challenges that our children face daily.
Divided
Doses – Our bodies are not designed to be nourished in one large
dose once a day. Without question, smaller, more frequent meals allows
for better utilization of the nutritional value of our food. The same
applies to the nutritional supplements that we consume. Complete Calcium
for Kids is designed to be taken twice daily in order to offer optimum
calcium protection.
Professionally
Formulated – The Progressive Complete Calcium for Kids was formulated
with the assistance of a renowned naturopathic doctor. Each component
has been chosen for its efficacy and harmony within the entire formulation.
This in turn offers great nutrition for kids, and peace of mind for
parents.
Naturally
Flavoured and Sweetened – Many popular children’s chewable
supplements contain large amounts of sugar and are unfortunately both
artificially flavored and coloured. In contrast, our children’s
chewable calcium contains a combination of natural citrus and berry
flavors and is sweetened with a blend of pure ingredients that includes
honey powder and organic maple syrup.
Airtight
Packaging – All of the Progressive Nutritional Therapies products
are packaged using a two-step sealing process. The clear outer seal
offers tamperproof protection while an additional inner induction seal
provides a secure, airtight barrier guaranteeing product potency and
freshness.
