What is calcium?
According to Health Canada, "calcium is beneficial in the formation and maintenance of healthy bones and teeth". Calcium is also known to play an even more important role in our physiology. It facilitates blood clotting (essential to the proper healing of wounds), aids nervous system function, stabilizes the heartbeat by regulating blood pressure and plays a leading role in muscle contraction and relaxation.

What is vitamin A?
According to Health Canada, "vitamin A contributes to the healthy development of bones and teeth, improves night vision and helps maintain skin and mucous tissue." Vitamin A also helps fight infection, boosts the immune system, improves acne and psoriasis, and is essential to reproduction. (Ref: A Course on Natural Products, H. Baribeau, M.Sc. Dt.P., Fall, 2000) |

What is vitamin D?
According to Health Canada, "vitamin D plays an important role in the formation and maintenance of teeth and bones and improves the absorption and use of calcium and phosphorus." Vitamin D is also essential to proper growth, increases calcium and phosphorus levels in the blood, and plays a role in cell function. (Ref: A Course on Natural Products, H. Baribeau, M.Sc.
