How it Works?
Calcinux Plus Capsule contains three active ingredients:
• Calcium Carbonate (500 mg): This essential mineral is integral in building and maintaining robust bones and teeth. It plays a crucial role in muscle function, nerve signalling, hormone secretion, and blood clotting.
• Calcitriol/Cholecalciferol (0.25 mcg): These forms of vitamin D facilitate the intestinal absorption of calcium, maintaining appropriate calcium and phosphate levels essential for bone growth and mineralisation. They also contribute to immune function, cell growth, and neuromuscular health.
• Zinc (7.5 mg): As a trace mineral, zinc is involved in numerous cellular metabolism aspects. It supports immune function, wound healing, protein and DNA synthesis, and growth and development. Zinc also assists in maintaining the senses of taste and smell.
