The Science
Built the way bone is built.
Ask most people what bone is made of and they'll say calcium. That's half the answer. Bone is a collagen frame with mineral laid down on it. DensiaPlus feeds both halves, in one unflavored scoop, with every dose on the label.
Bone is made of two things
Calcium and the other minerals set on a collagen frame and give it hardness. Take either half away and you don't have bone. Bone is also living tissue. It's being taken down and rebuilt all the time, out of what you eat. Most of the adult skeleton is replaced about every 10 years.
The frame
Collagen is about 90% of bone's organic framework and the main structural protein of bone, tendons, ligaments and skin. A calcium pill gives it nothing. DensiaPlus starts here, with 9 g of collagen peptides per scoop.
The mineral
Calcium helps build and maintain strong bones.* Magnesium is part of bone's mineral structure. DensiaPlus carries both, with vitamin D3 to help the body absorb calcium and K2 (MK-7) to help bind it into bone.*
Nine nutrients. Every dose on the label.
One 10 g scoop, once a day. 30 scoops per 300 g bag. No proprietary blend, so you or your doctor can read every number.
| Nutrient | Per scoop | Form |
|---|---|---|
| Collagen peptides | 9 g (9,000 mg) | Bovine, hydrolyzed |
| Calcium | 660 mg | Calcium citrate |
| Magnesium | 198 mg | Magnesium bisglycinate |
| Vitamin D3 | 1,320 IU (33 µg) | Cholecalciferol |
| Vitamin K2 | 132 µg | Menaquinone-7 (MK-7) |
| Vitamin C | 132 mg | Ascorbic acid |
| Zinc | 6.6 mg | Zinc citrate |
| Copper | about 1 mg | Copper gluconate |
| Boron | 2.6 mg | Sodium borate |
What each one is there to do
-
Collagen peptides9 gBovine, hydrolyzed
Collagen is the main structural protein of bone, tendons, ligaments and skin, and about 90% of bone's organic framework. Collagen peptides are collagen broken into smaller pieces, and they supply glycine, proline and hydroxyproline, the amino acids collagen is built from. Studies on collagen peptides commonly use 2.5 to 15 g a day. DensiaPlus gives you 9 g, which is 90% of every scoop. Collagen is not a complete protein and doesn't replace protein-rich meals.
-
Calcium660 mgCalcium citrate
Calcium helps build and maintain strong bones.* It's the best-known half of bone's mineral. The rest of the formula is there to help your body absorb the calcium and put it where it belongs, which is why DensiaPlus pairs it with vitamin D3 and K2 instead of leaving it on its own.
-
Magnesium198 mgMagnesium bisglycinate
Magnesium is part of bone's mineral structure. About 60% of the body's magnesium is in bone. In the bisglycinate form the magnesium is bound to the amino acid glycine.
-
Vitamin D31,320 IUCholecalciferol (33 µg)
Vitamin D3 helps the body absorb calcium.* Without enough vitamin D, you absorb only a small fraction of the calcium in your diet. That's why DensiaPlus never leaves calcium on its own.
-
Vitamin K2132 µgMenaquinone-7 (MK-7)
K2 activates osteocalcin, a protein that helps bind calcium into bone.* D3 helps your body take calcium in. K2 helps direct it into bone.* If you take a blood thinner such as warfarin, talk to your doctor before taking DensiaPlus, because vitamin K can affect how those medicines work.
-
Vitamin C132 mgAscorbic acid
Vitamin C is needed for normal collagen formation.* Your body uses it when it makes collagen of its own, which is why it sits next to the 9 g of collagen peptides in the formula instead of in a separate bottle.
-
Zinc6.6 mgZinc citrate
A trace mineral, included as zinc citrate.
-
Copper~1 mgCopper gluconate
Copper is needed to cross-link collagen fibers.* Cross-linking is how the body ties collagen strands to each other.
-
Boron2.6 mgSodium borate
A trace mineral, included as sodium borate.
Four jobs, one scoop
-
01
The frame
9 g of collagen peptides, the main structural protein of bone.
-
02
The mineral
Calcium and magnesium, the half most bone products stop at.
-
03
Absorb it
Vitamin D3 helps the body absorb calcium.*
-
04
Bind it
K2 (MK-7) activates osteocalcin, which helps bind calcium into bone.* Vitamin C and copper help your body form collagen and link its fibers.*
One unflavored scoop in your morning coffee. That's the whole routine.
Daily nutrition, not a medication.
It doesn't treat, prevent or cure any condition, and it doesn't replace anything your doctor prescribes. Your doctor decides about prescriptions. DensiaPlus is daily nutrition, built the way bone is built, for people who want to feed both halves of bone.
Before you start, talk to your doctor or pharmacist. Especially if you take a blood thinner like warfarin, medicines whose absorption calcium can affect, or a weight-loss medication. Keep taking anything you've been prescribed.
Try it for 90 days.
If it isn't for you, email support@densiaplus.com and we'll refund you. Empty or full.
