A Study of Changes in Bone Mineral Density as a Function of Consuming Two Different Forms of Calcium Carbonate

Addressing the need for a form of supplemental calcium that could facilitate increases in BMD without the adverse effects often reported with limestone-based forms of calcium, a patented technology was developed to increase calcium absorbability using both Zet Mill/Ball Mill bottom-up pulverizing technology and 4D top-down ebonite charging technology to create a novel form of calcium referred to as micronized calcium carbonate (MCC). In comparison to other technologies that use water and high heat, which results in a loss of core nutrients and decreased product efficacy, the calcium produced by this unique pulverizing technology is micron-sized (0.03um - 10um) and therefore believed to be more effective. While its tiny size was thought to increase its absorption, the belief was that the intense activation of zinc via the patented ebonite charging process that could maximize the bioavailability of this calcium.
