BonPlus takes care of the whole musculoskeletal systems

Keeping your bones strong is a smart goal at any age as a fracture-proof frame becomes a bigger priority after age 50, especially for women.

Our musculoskeletal systems consist of bones, muscles & joints that work together to hold our body together & provide freedom of movement. They provide extremely important structures of our body as a stable frame to enable movement in a safe manner. This allows us to carry out many challenging physical activities & stay active throughout our daily lives.

Osteoporosis

Osteoporosis develops when bone density decreases, the bones become porous & weaker, which ultimately increases the risk of fractures. Imagining your bones as a structure made up of web that stores calcium & other minerals. As we age, these minerals including calcium escape more easily, leaving the web much emptier & weaker.

Our bone mass decreases gradually after the age of 30 as a natural part of the aging process. Keeping your bones strong is a smart goal at any age as a fracture-proof frame becomes a bigger priority after age 50, especially for women.

What Is In Our Bones?

Calcium

Bones are the home for calcium. About 99% of calcium is stored in our bones & teeth. It is the mineral that makes our bones strong & hard.

Specialized bone cells – Osteoblast & osteoclast

These specialized bone cells are constantly remodelling the skeleton by building up new bone tissue and breaking down old bone tissue as required.

Framework of Collagen

While being essentially hard to provide optimal support, bones have a significant degree of elasticity, contributed chiefly by collagen.

Bones are made up of connective tissue reinforced with calcium and specialised bone cells. The body is constantly remodelling the skeleton by building up new bone tissue and breaking down old bone tissue as required.

Factors That Increases Risk Of Osteoporosis

· Advancing Age

· Female

· Early Menopause

· Sedentary Lifestyle

· Excessive Alcohol Intake

· Cigarettes Use

· Excessive & Prolonged Caffeine Intake

· Low Body Mass Index (BMI<19)

BonPlus - A Holistic Approach To Achieve Strong Musculoskeletal System

While many products in the market emphasize on supplying high quality & optimal amount of calcium for strong bones, BonPlus focuses on a holistic approach that takes care of the whole musculoskeletal systems.

For Healthy Bones

Aquamin™

Aquamin™ is a multi-mineral complex which is derived from the red marine algae. Aquamin™ is an all-natural, vegan, allergen free and non-GMO ingredient, which is more appealing than other commercial rock or animal based calcium as it is more digestible & friendly to our guts. Aquamin™ is also certified by FDA as a GRAS (Generaly Recognized As Safe) ingredient.

For Strong Muscles

Colostrum

Being the “first milk” produced by mammals after labour, colostrum contains optimal macronutrients including quality protein, carbohydrates, fats & vitamins as well as other protein compounds such as lactoferrin & growth hormone which are ideal to promote muscle growth & tissue repair.

Soy Protein

Being a high quality, plant-based protein, soy protein is an ideal complete protein that contains all 9 essential amino acids, which supports muscle building & supports lean body mass gains.

For Flexible Joints

Collagen Type II

Collagen is an important component of cartilage, which is the cushion that covers our bone endings. Healthy cartilage is important as it acts as a shock absorber during movements & also a lubricant that allow smooth joint movements.
