Benefits of Calgrow Tablet
In Treatment of Calcium deficiency
Calgrow-K2 Tablet is a nutritional supplement that is used to prevent or treat low blood calcium levels in people who do not get enough calcium from their diets. It improves the level of calcium in the body. This helps keep your bones strong and healthy and reduce the risk of any bone disorders like osteoporosis. Calcium is also necessary for normal functioning of nerves, cells, muscle and heart.
In Treatment and prevention of Osteoporosis
Osteoporosis is a common condition that causes bones to become fragile and brittle so that they break (fracture) more easily. Fractures may be painful and restrict a person’s ability to carry out their normal daily tasks. Calgrow-K2 Tablet helps in the treatment and prevention of osteoporosis. This medicine helps in the growth and development of bones as well as maintain strong bones. Since osteoporosis doesn’t usually have any symptoms such as pain (until a fracture occurs) you might not ‘feel’ any immediate benefit from your treatment with Calgrow-K2 Tablet. Keep taking it until your doctor asks you to stop. Along with medicines, eat a balanced diet rich in calcium and vitamin D like dairy products, green leafy vegetables etc.

How Calgrow Tablet works
Calgrow-K2 Tablet is a combination of Calcitriol, Calcium Carbonate, and Vitamin K2-7. Calcitriol is the active form of Vitamin D. It raises Vitamin D levels in your blood. This in turn raises calcium levels in your blood by helping you absorb more calcium from your intestine. Calcium carbonate is a dietary supplement used when the amount of calcium taken in the diet is not enough. Vitamin K2-7 plays a central role in the metabolism of calcium, the main mineral found in your bones and teeth. Vitamin K2-7 activates the calcium-binding actions of two proteins : matrix GLA protein and osteocalcin, which help to build and maintain bone health.
