It’s estimated that 34 million Americans have low bone mineral density, which raises the risk of fractures and development of brittle bones. Postmenopausal women are particularly at risk – 84% have either brittle bones or are on their way to developing the condition.

An adequate supply of vitamins and minerals is needed to support healthy bone remodeling, the process that renews bone, repairs damage and maintains bone strength. These nutrients include manganese, boron, silicon (or silica), strontium, calcium, magnesium and vitamins D3 and K2.
