Vitamin K is A-OK

Manila, Philippines - Pascual Consumer Healthcare Corp (PCHC) recently launched CalChews, recognizing the need for a calcium product that is fortified with synergistic nutrients that would ensure optimum bone health while preventing dangerous calcium build-up in the body. CalChews contains vitamin K, that is essential in our life-saving blood clot formation (K comes from the German word koagulation). A recent article in the Life Extension magazine, an authority on new discoveries in health, nutrition, and anti-aging supplements, describes vitamin K as “a lot more exciting than anybody ever dreamed.” “It may be a key anti-aging vitamin. It may prevent both heart disease and osteoporosis. And it’s a stronger antioxidant than vitamin E or Coenzyme Q10,” the article further points out. CalChews, which has 500mg of calcium, also contains 40mcg of vitamin K. Thus, one chew a day combined with a balanced nutritious diet is enough to cover daily requirements for a normal individual under normal circumstances. “With its ideal combination of calcium, vitamin D3, and vitamin K in the recommended daily dose, CalChews offers a complete solution for optimum bone maintenance,” says PCHC’s medical director Dr. Eliseo T. Banaynal Jr. The fact that CalChews also comes in soft chewy candy form (with two flavors: Rich Chocolate and Creamy Caramel) makes it a more desirable, no-brainer proposition for women and everyone else who should supplement their diet with calcium every day.
