Calcissentiel® : Exclusive micronutritional complex with 3 forms of calcium for optimal efficacy
Throughout life, total calcium mass tends to decline, a process directly associated with reduced bone mineral densityand alterations in bone microarchitecture, ultimately increasing the risk of fractures.
The efficacy of preventive calcium supplementation depends largely on the form of calcium used. That’s why Laboratoire THERASCIENCE has developed an exclusive synergy of three organic forms of calcium, selected for their high bioavailability and excellent gastrointestinal tolerance.
This patented formula, known as Calcissentiel®, combines three forms of calcium in an optimal ratio to ensure maximum effectiveness:
-
Calcium lactate is a highly bioavailable and well-tolerated source of elemental calcium.
-
Calcium glycerophosphate was selected for its high solubility and its beneficial association with phosphorus. The mineral phase of bone is composed of hydroxyapatite [Ca₁₀(PO₄)₆(OH)₂], and the calcium/phosphorus ratio in bone is approximately 7:1. Clinical data show that phosphorus enhances calcium retention and reduces urinary calcium excretion.
-
Tricalcium citrate is known for its excellent absorption and additional alkalinizing effect. Citrates help maintain mineral-ionic balance and prevent bone demineralization caused by urinary calcium loss. Citrate supplementation has been shown to reduce markers of bone resorption⁴.
Calcissentiel® is an exclusive micronutritional complex that ensures optimal absorption, bioavailability, and tolerance through the synergistic combination of the best calcium forms in their most effective ratio — guaranteeing maximum efficacy for bone health.
