Vegan Vitamins and Tablets for Bones

Although you probably don’t give your joints and muscles much of a thought in your teens, by the time you get to your mid-to late twenties, especially if you have an active lifestyle, we bet you probably start to notice them more? Yep, we’re talking about that ‘thing’ that happens. One day after a hard gym session, it’s harder to get out of bed and there’s a bit of popping and snapping when you’re going down the stairs...sound familiar?

But, did you know that your diet can play a significant role in looking after your joints and muscles from within? One of the most important things to do is to make sure your diet includes the nutrients that will help keep your joints lubricated and mobile and build bone and muscle strength, like Omega-3, glucosamine, chondroitin (phytodroitin™) and calcium.

Can my diet make a difference to joint pain?

There is a great deal of information available about different diets that could help alleviate joint pain and help keep your joints healthy. It is true that certain foods will provide vital nutrients for joint and bone health, but the Anti-Inflammatory Diet that has been publicised has no scientific backing as a whole dietary plan.

Foods that can help with strengthening and healing joints are:

Leafy green vegetables such as broccoli, kale, spinach, cabbage and cauliflower, which are high in antioxidants
Citrus fruits which are high in Vitamin C
Whole grains which lower the C-reactive protein levels in the blood, which cause inflammation

While a balanced and varied diet is a great way to get most of the nutrients your joints need for continued health, it is also wise to consider taking an additional bone and joint supplement, like Bone Care, from Vegetology.

What is in Vegetology Bone Care? (And why?)

Bone Care contains a bone and joint supplement with a powerful combination of active ingredients. We understand that to get the best out of ingredients sometimes we need to combine them with others, to be most effective.

Glucosamine and Phytodroitin™ - you may be used to seeing bone and joint supplements that combine glucosamine with Chondroitin. We have developed a plant-based alternative to Chondroitin (because it is often sourced from sharks) which is not only more sustainable and planet-friendly, but equally as effective.
Calcium, Vitamin D3 and Vitamin K2 - we all know that calcium is good for our bones. But did you know that getting the balance of calcium, Vitamin D3 and Vitamin K2 right is really important in order to enjoy the full benefits from calcium? In fact, without this balance, calcium alone can cause deposits in your arteries. Vitamin K2 stops this calcification and Vitamin D3 helps with absorption into the blood. That's why we’ve got a delicate balance of the three in the Bone Care formula.
Vitamin C- this contributes to normal collagen formation, which is essential for the normal function of bones and cartilage. It is also an antioxidant so can help to prevent and alleviate inflammation.
Magnesium - this contributes to your electrolyte balance, normal muscle function and helps to maintain normal bones.
