The complex is based on
bamboo and
calcium. It is recommended for compensating the calcium shortage in the child's organism, sustaining healthy teeth, strengthening the bone tissue, normalizing metabolic processes and enhancing immunity in the active growth period.
Calcium is essential to ensure a normal functioning of the human body.
Calcium, along with phosphorous, constitutes the basic construction material for bone tissue, stimulates essential enzymes, helps maintain ionic equilibrium in the body, is necessary to ensure a normal excitation/relaxation ratio of the nervous system and muscular contractility, and is a factor in improving the coagulating properties of the blood.
The lack of
calcium in the body leads to hyperexcitability of the nervous system and fits of tetany. While adults still need around 0.8 - 1.2 grams of calcium, calcium is of particular importance for children whose bodies are actively growing and developing.
Vitamin D possesses the ability to regulate the phosphorous-calcium metabolism, ensures absorption of calcium and phosphorous in the intestines and reabsorption of calcium and phosphorous in the kidney tubules, and facilitates mineralization of bone tissue. Vitamin D is necessary to the body’s growth and to support bones and teeth in a healthy condition, and it facilitates an increase in the body’s resistance and prevention of oncopathology.
An insufficiency of
vitamin D leads to breakdown of the phosphorous-calcium metabolism, a consequence of which is rickets - deformation of the bones as a result of the breakdown of the processes of their mineralization.
There is practically no
vitamin D in plant products. Fish products -
fish oil and cod liver - contain the largest amounts of the vitamin. Additional food sources of
vitamin D are butter and eggs. Unfortunately, fish products are rarely used in children’s diets, and so bioactive food supplements are an important source of that vitamin.
