Questions & Answers

Why is mil-gel™ Different from Other Products?

The difference between Mil-Gel calcium and other products can be examined under following categories:

• High absorption of calcium
• Good deposition of calcium for building bone mass
• Proper calcium to phosphorous ratio and essential minerals

Absorption of Calcium
Recent studies concluded that the best way to obtain calcium is by consuming food that naturally contains calcium such as milk. It has been proven that most people are better able to absorb calcium from dairy sources compared to synthetic calcium. This is why Mil-Gel provides 100% absorption of calcium.

Deposition of Calcium
Dairy calcium has been shown to be more effectively deposited in the bone because of less interference with the bone renewal process. Mil-Gel has the ideal calcium utilization at the bone level to give a 50% more bone density than other sources.

Calcium to phosphorous ratio and minerals
Both calcium and phosphorus are required for bone development, and changes in bone characteristics have been linked to having the appropriate ratio of calcium to phosphorous. Mel-Gel has a 1.8 : 1 ratio of calcium to phosphorous. This is the same ratio as that found in the human bone and the main reason why Mil-Gel can build greater bone density.

Many other minerals such as Mg, K, Zn and Cu are also required for optimal bone growth and health. Milk has long been recognized as providing a great mineral balance. Mil-Gel is the first such product to be manufactured in the U.S. to give an ideal composition of these essential minerals.
