Ultimate Bone Support Reviews: How Safe and Effective is This Tablet?
Product Overview
The aging process slowly inhibits our body’s ability to produce and maintain healthy bone mass, letting our bones become thinner and more brittle. Luckily, science has provided an alternative: calcium supplements.
Ultimate Bone Support is an advanced calcium complex manufactured by Solgar, Inc. In business since 1947, Solgar, Inc. has branches in 46 other countries around the world, its headquarters located in Leonia, New Jersey.

- Anti-caking Agents: Vegetable stearic acid, silicon dioxide, vegetable magnesium stearate
- Glazing Agents: Hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose, vegetable glycerin (from palm kernel oil and coconut oil) contains milk and soy
How Does Ultimate Bone Support Work?
Calcium alone is not enough. Unable to be absorbed by the body quickly, the human body can only metabolize 500 mg or less at a time. Magnesium smoothes the way, making it easier to metabolize the calcium and thus, less calcium is lost to waste.
Vitamins D3 and K2 are also part of this product and they, along with the chelated minerals, create a more easily digested product. Our bones are in a constant state of growth and deterioration. The more calcium, vitamins and minerals that make it past the digestive process, the more bone fibers collagen and elastin can build.
Research in the last 30 years has shown that calcium supplements have stopped bone-mass deterioration in most cases and, in many cases, encouraged new bone mass production.
While calcium is the fore-runner of good bone health, magnesium, manganese and Boron combine to maintain bone density. Magnesium is also an essential part of the brain’s ability to maintain healthy psychology.
Pros
Solgar, Inc. only uses the calcium complex of calcium (malate, citrate and glycinate) created by Albion International Inc., a gentler, faster metabolizing mineral than other forms of calcium. Simply put, Ultimate Bone Support gives you more calcium supplement for your money.
Ultimate Bone Support contains no sugar, wheat, yeast, sweeteners, gluten, preservatives, artificial colors or flavors. The chelated minerals used to make this supplement are gentler on the digestive process allowing a faster rate of absorption and fewer incidences of stomach upset.
Cons
At the outset, an upset stomach, constipation, or cramping can occur. These are common side effects. If they continue or worsen, however, notify your doctor.
Calcium supplements may interact with certain prescription and over the counter medications. It’s always best to discuss adding something new to your health routine with your doctor first.
