Calcium
Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body and 99% of it is found in bones and teeth. Over the years, bone density begins to decrease as part of the natural aging process. Calcium is a necessary nutrient for maintaining bone density and can be found in foods such as milk, cheese, nuts and seeds, tofu, kale, and legumes.
Magnesium
Another essential mineral found in our bodies is magnesium. It is required for over 800 enzymatic reactions in the body, including helping to regulate calcium within cells. In addition to this, magnesium stimulates the production of calcitonin, a hormone that inhibits the cells responsible for bone breakdown. Furthermore, magnesium activates alkaline phosphatase, which is vital for forming new calcium crystals in bones. You’ll find magnesium in foods like legumes, tofu, and nuts.
K2 and D3
Vitamin D3 is essential to aid in the absorption of calcium and phosphorus to keep bones and teeth strong. K2 is critical to bone metabolism and is an activator of osteocalcin, the protein essential to calcium deposition in bones. Together, vitamins D3 and K2 help influence the mineral strength of bones and teeth – vitamin D3 absorbs calcium from the intestinal tract and vitamin K2 guides that calcium into the bones.
Zinc
Trace minerals like zinc are needed in small amounts in the body, but they make a big difference. Zinc, in particular, is needed for the formation of bone building cells and for preventing bone breakdown. Zinc can be found in foods like shellfish, legumes, nuts and seeds, whole grains, and eggs.
Phosphorus
Phosphorus is an important nutrient for bone formation, but it is needed in a subtle balance with calcium in order to properly support bone health. When calcium levels are too high, the body is unable to properly absorb phosphorus, and the reverse is also true. Food sources of phosphorus include red meat, seafood, dairy, legumes, and nuts.
Boron
By now we know that calcium is a vital nutrient for bone health, that it is responsible for strong bones, and that it relies on the presence of vitamin D for absorption. Studies have shown that boron, a trace mineral found in leafy greens, nuts, and grains, positively impacts the body’s utilization of vitamin D, which can help bolster its role in mineral metabolism. Boron also influences the production of certain steroid hormones, which helps prevent calcium loss and bone demineralization.
Vitamin C
One of the most important structural components of bone is collagen, a protein that, in addition to strengthening bones, also strengthens skin, muscles.
