Introduction About SHELCAL JOINTS CAPSULE
Shelcal-Joints Capsule is a nutritional supplement used for dietary calcium supplementation for growth, during pregnancy and breastfeeding, and to manage osteoporosis (weak and brittle bones). It contains calcium, collagen type II, vitamin D3, vitamin C and minerals that help in increasing the bone mass and bone strength.
Calcium is necessary for many normal functions of the body particularly, bone formation and maintenance. Vitamin D3 helps in the absorption of calcium from the digestive tract and maintains the calcium balance in the body.
Magnesium is involved in bone and mineral homeostasis and is important in bone crystals growth and stabilization. Manganese assists bone formation and pyruvate conversion. Zinc is essential for synthesis of nucleic acid, protein metabolism and cell membrane.
Copper improves production of collagen which is an important part of connective tissues. Vitamin C is required in the production of collagen in bone matrix. Collagen is the main component of bones and cartilages that are crucial in maintaining joint flexibility and resistance to stress and fractures.
Take Shelcal-Joints Capsule as advised by your doctor. It is not recommended for use if you have increased levels of vitamin D3 in blood or any malignant bone disease. Shelcal-Joints Capsule should be used with caution in patients having kidney stones or other kidney problems.
