SHELCURE

SHELCURE is a scientifically designed nutritional supplement containing Calcium Carbonate (500 mg) and Vitamin D3 (250 IU) for normal, healthy bones, healthy teeth, and good health of skeletal density. Our bodies require an adequate amount of calcium in our diets to maintain bone density, where vitamin D3 facilitates the absorption of calcium. Taken in combination, they reduce the risk of developing osteoporosis, rickets and other bone-associated conditions. SHELCURE should be taken by anyone who suffers from a calcium deficiency, such as osteoporotic, post-menopausal women, geriatric patients and growing children to supplement their nutrition. 

Composition of SHELCURE Tablet 

SHELCURE is formulated with the following ingredients per tablet: 1. Calcium carbonate – 500 mg 2. Vitamin D3 (Cholecalciferol) – 250 IU. Your calcium carbonate has high levels of elemental calcium and is regarded as an efficient, effective source of calcium. Vitamin D3 aids in the absorption and utilisation of calcium.

Mechanism of Action

Calcium Carbonate: Calcium is important to the development and maintenance of bones and teeth. Calcium is involved in nerve transmission, muscle contraction, blood clotting, and in enzyme activity. Calcium carbonate is a direct source of calcium for the replenishment of deficiency and maintaining adequate levels in the blood. 

Vitamin D3 (Cholecalciferol): Vitamin D3 increases intestinal absorption of calcium and phosphorus in the diet. Vitamin D3 regulates calcium balance by limiting calcium loss in urine and stimulating bone mineralisation and resorption. Without sufficient Vitamin D3, a high intake of calcium will not be completely utilised.
