Why do you need the right nutrients for bone health?
Healthy bones start from an early age when supported by a healthy balanced diet. This will help you build and maintain them throughout your life.
Calcium keeps your bones healthy, while vitamin D helps your body to absorb calcium.
A poor diet can lead to poor bone health and could make you more at risk from having conditions such as rickets and osteoporosis. There is also an increased risk of breaking a bone from a fall later in life.
A lot of women consume half the recommended amounts of calcium and other bone nutrients for optimal bone health. Bone mass is built at a young age for females with it reaching maximum bone density in their late twenties.
Bone nutrients are crucial during the early years of bone development. Teen women are less likely to eat the best diet and would benefit from increased bone nutrient consumption as their young bones are absorbing nutrients at a rate nearly double that of adult women.
Good sources of calcium for vegans include:
fortified soya, rice and oat drinks
soya beans
calcium-set tofu
sesame seeds and tahini
pulses
brown and white bread (in the UK calcium is added to white and brown flour by law)
dried fruit such as raisins, prunes, figs and dried apricots
Vitamin D-2 and D-3 are included to help bones absorb calcium.
What foods are good for your bone health?

What Makes Bone Nutrient Essential Complex Unique?
dÅTERRA Women Bone Nutrient Essential Complex is a blend of vitamins and minerals essential for bone health in women beginning in adolescence and continuing through menopause.
Bone Nutrient Essential Complex is formulated with bioavailable forms of natural nutrients that include vitamins C and D, plus calcium, magnesium, and other trace minerals that support healthy bone density as a woman ages.
This supplement includes 100 percent of the recommended daily amounts of calcium and magnesium, and the important trace minerals zinc, copper, manganese, and boron. These nutrients are vital for bone health and strength, and are commonly deficient in the average woman’s diet.
Vitamin D-2 and D-3 are included to help bones absorb calcium.
While nutrients for the bones can be consumed through diet, most women aren’t getting the calcium, magnesium, and other nutrients they need in their daily diet. The Bone Nutrient Essential Complex provides an easy and convenient way to get these nutrients.
How to Take Bone Nutrient Essential Complex
Teen and adult women (and men) take four capsules daily with food.
For those concerned about the possible risks associated with sodium lauryl sulfate, Bone Nutrient Essential Complex is made with SLS-free HPMC vegetable capsules.
