Ostium K2 Forte Tablet
Product Details
Ostium K2 Forte Tablet
Calcium and vitamin D3 combination that helps only in increasing calcium absorption. However proper utilisation of calcium needs to be ensured. Ostium K2 works at the cellular level, carboxylates Osteocalcin and thus ensures proper mineralisation. A combination of vitamin K27 with calcitriol is superior to vitamin K27 and calcitriol supplementation alone, improving bone mineral density and reducing the risk of fractures. Thus, Ostium K2 not only ensures absorption of calcium but also ensures proper utilisation and thus improves the bone mineral density and reduces the incidences of fracture.

Key Ingredients:
  • Vitamin K 2750 mcg
  • Calcium Carbonate IP (equivalent to elemental Calcium) 500 mg
  • Calcitriol IP 0.25 mcg
  • Zinc Sulphate IP (equivalent to elemental Zinc) 7.5 mg
  • Magnesium Sulphate IP (equivalent to elemental Magnesium) 50 mg

Key Benefits:
  • Enhanced calcium absorption: Ostium K2 Forte Tablet contains a combination of calcium and vitamin D3, which helps in increasing the absorption of calcium in the body. Calcium is essential for strong bones and teeth, as well as for various physiological functions
  • Cellular-level action: Some calcium supplements that merely focus on absorption, Ostium K2 Forte goes a step further by working at the cellular level. It carboxylates Osteocalcin, a protein involved in bone mineralisation. This process ensures that the absorbed calcium is properly utilised for bone health
  • Synergistic vitamin combination: The tablet combines vitamin K27 with calcitriol. This combination is more effective in improving bone mineral density and reducing the risk of fractures when compared to supplementing vitamin K27 and calcitriol separately. Vitamin K27 plays a crucial role in regulating calcium in the body, while calcitriol is the active form of vitamin D3
  • Improved bone health: By addressing both calcium absorption and utilisation, Ostium K2 Forte Tablet contributes to better overall bone health. Proper mineralisation of bones is essential for maintaining their strength and integrity
  • Fracture risk reduction: The tablet's ability to enhance bone mineral density and ensure proper utilisation of calcium helps in reducing the risk of fractures. Stronger bones are less susceptible to breakage, especially in cases of falls or accidents
