A typical human frame is comprised of 206 bones.Bones are
living tissues that provide structural support for muscles, protect
vital organs, and store the calcium essential for bone density
and strength.To keep bones strong, the body is continually breaking
down old bone and replacing it with new bone tissue. Until the
age of about 30, you build and store bone efficiently. Then,
as part of the natural aging process, bones begin to break down
faster than new bone can be formed.The body needs calcium to
support functions including development and reparation of bones
and teeth, nerve function, muscle contraction, blood clotting,
and support of proper function of the heart. The National Osteoporosis
Foundation suggests that individuals maintain a healthy lifestyle,
adequate calcium consumption, and weight-bearing exercise in
order to support the strengthening of the body's bones. In order
for calcium to be absorbed efficiently by your body, it needs
other mineral co-factors.
Youngevityy's® Osteo
fx Plus™ was formulated to support healthy bones and
joints, Osteo fx Plus™meets the U.S. daily requirements
for people over age 50 with 1,200 mg of calcium, and contains
the co-factors necessary to help your body better absorb and
retain calcium. Vitamin D and Glucosamine; which are natural
compounds found in healthy cartilage, also promote absorption,
and support optimal health and well-being.
Another important co-factor in Osteo fx Plus™ is the
300 mg of magnesium, which is an essential mineral involved in
more than 300 systems in the human body. Magnesium is found mostly
in green leafy vegetables, but the USDA says we aren't eating
enough fruits and vegetables in our diet!The refined foods, which
make up most of our diet, generally have the lowest magnesium
and overall nutritional content. Osteo fx Plus™ is the answer
to this deficit- it's never too late to commit to bone and joint
health with a nutritional step in the right direction!

Antioxidant-boosting CocoGevity™
is comprised of a powerful hybrid of the world's most exotic
ingredients and luscious fruits, such as Açai, Mangosteen
and Wolfberry. The ingredients are intended to provide potent
antioxidants that are bioavailable and highly sought after for
their nutritious, health-promoting benefits.
CocoGevity™ boasts an indulgent ingredient ("th
efood of the Gods") that increases it's naturally cocolicious
flavor Chocolate! Cocogen Extract is a natural extract of the
cocoa bean. Chocolate has gained its reputation for having significant
amounts of naturally occurring flavonoids, with an antioxidant
count twice as high as red wine and three times higher than green
tea. Not surprisingly, for 90% of its history, Chocolate has
been consumed in liquid form.
Another key ingredient is Açai, the fruit of a palm
tree ("The Tree of Life") that grows in the rainforests
of theAmazon, and is known to have ten times more antioxidants
than red grapes and 10 to 30 times the anthocyanins (polyphenols
that give fruits and vegetables their deep color and are high
in antioxidant value) of red wine.Antioxidants, which include
the vitamins C and E that are found in theAçaí
fruit, help to neutralize oxygen-free radicals.Açaí
also has a high concentration of Omega 6 and Omega 9 fatty acids,
which help fight the buildup of LDL, or bad cholesterol. Açaí
promotes cardiovascularand digestive health and contains a large
range of vitamins and nutrients including Vitamins B1, B2, B3,C,
E, Potassium, Zinc, Magnesium and Phosphorus.
Mangosteen is also recognized for the incredibly potent antioxidant
power of its phytonutrient xanthones. Xanthones are the most
highly active antioxidants found in the mangosteen fruit and
come predominately from the rind or outer shell portion of the
fruit. Xanthones are a biological class of phytonutrients that
are very stable and have been found to exhibit strong antioxidantactivity.
Mangosteen has over 40 naturally occurring xanthones!
