Customer questions / expert answers

Q. Hi

Can you plesae tell me CalmX is there any side effects if so, do you recommend something else better. I really do not want any side effects.

Thanks
Judy

CalmX is an alkalising magnesium powder for stress and supports the nervous system for those prone to irritability and insomnia. There are no side effects for this product. Bioceuticals produce a similiar product Ultramuscleze night.

Bioceutical Advacal forte contains Vitamin D and other nutrients for Osteoporosis prevention. As you have a familial history, it would be a good idea to consider taking precautions now.

Q. I have now seen a good dentist and been referred to a periodontist. Supplements are great, but I've learned that they may not be reaching my gums as smoking restricts the blood flow to this area. I am seeking topical solutions and also supplements that make hall regenerate the alveola bone (the one the teeth are anchored into). Do you think you could help me with this.

Regarding nutritional support for alveola bone - Metagenics Osteo Plus or Bioceuticals AdvaCal - both contain a calcium hydroxyapatite bone matrix which contains the nutrients to nourish bone health.

Regarding improving absorption of nutrients to gums and periodontal regions consider CoQ10 - Metagenics Bio Q-Absorb 150 or Bioceuticals CoQ10 Excel 150 - 1 per day. See link below for more info:

Q. I have been taking Metagenics Osteo Plus and was wondering if you could suggest another product that is not so expensive, but just as effective?

The best alternative is BioCeutical's Advacal - you only need 3 / day instead of 4 / day of the Osteo Plus. It has a hydroxyapatite crystaline calcium complex matrix for maximum absorption, and is similiar to Osteoplus.
