Many kinds of calcium supplements are available on the market now. Their effectiveness depends on how your body responds to the ingredients found in them. Soft chewable calcium tablets have been found to be very beneficial for people of all ages including children under the age of 10.
These tablets come in many shapes and sizes. Artificial flavor is also added to them to make them easier to chew and swallow. As the name suggests, these tablets are soft and can be consumed after meals as a sweet treat.
Normally, calcium carbonate and calcium citrate are used to manufacture calcium supplements. Liquid supplements are also available on the market and they are ideal to be used by elderly people. In addition to an effective calcium salt, soft chewable calcium tablets also contain certain vitamins and minerals important for proper absorption of calcium.
Magnesium, phosphorus, vitamin D and vitamin K2 are some of the nutrients used in making soft chewable calcium tablets. These nutrients provide some of their own benefits as well in terms of long-term health and well-being. They are required by the body to perform many functions and activities including proper blood circulation, absorption of other nutrients and proper digestion of food.
In addition to calcium tablets, multi-vitamin supplements should also be consumed on a regular basis. Most of us are nutrient deficient without even being aware of this alarming fact. This is because we don�t get to eat balanced diets anymore due to our busy routines. Nutrient deficiency in the body and especially calcium and magnesium deficiency is very dangerous for long-term health.
Many degenerative diseases like osteoporosis, Alzheimer�s disease, colon cancer and Parkinson�s disease occur as a result of calcium deficiency in the body. These diseases progressively make concerned organs weaker and weaker and a time comes when they become incurable.
Women above the age of 40 are at high risk of developing bone disease in old age. They are strongly advised to increase their calcium intake through calcium supplements and soft chewable calcium tablets. Normally 1000 � 1500 mg of calcium is required by the human body daily depending on its age and overall health.
You can refer to an RDA chart for calcium to determine how much calcium you should be consuming on a daily basis. Try to eat a balanced diet, exercise frequently and don�t sit idle for long durations of time. In addition to these, add good-quality calcium supplements to your diet and avoid tobacco, caffeine, soft drinks and too much sugar.

There is definite reason why holy basil is highly revered in India and Europe. This tiny plant that belongs to the mint family is said to ward off any kind of misfortune-and more.
Holy Basil is fondly called tulsi or the great "Incomparable One" by the Hindus. It is the most cherished of all as it's gifted with healing powers both for the spiritual and physical element of a person. For them, a tulsi plant in every household represents each family member's serenity, peacefulness, and purity. It invites luck right at their own doorstep. When tulsi traveled to Europe by taking the west route, it was heralded by Christians as a holy plant, the King of all Herbs. It became a staple in every worship and offering ritual and considered as the best gift for Jesus Christ.
But the ultimate strength of the tulsi isn't limited to legends and folklore of great religions. It is from the plant's uncanny ability to improve the lives of its users, especially to those who are sick both in the body and in the mind.
The holy basil plant can improve your endurance and stamina. It can also increase your immunity. It's one of the best fighters against common illnesses like flu, cough, and colds. It reduces inflammation, kills bacteria, and scares away insects. Beauty-conscious individuals can take delight in knowing that tulsi can actually slow down the aging process and free the body with toxins.
It promotes a healthy balance among your organs, especially of your digestive system, the heart, liver, and the lungs. It promotes healthy sets of teeth and encourages you to use oxygen efficiently. Diabetics can manage their glucose with the help of holy basil. Most of all, it protects yourself from radioactive damage.
With the way we live, it's not seldom that we feel the burdens of the world. There's the need to compete, to always fight for the top, and to keep up with everyday changes, especially in the areas of lifestyle and technology. In the end, we get slumped in our chairs feeling tired, burned out, and stressed. We get too sick easily.
A little tulsi, however, can change all that. We can share with the benefits and the kind of homage India and Europe give to it-for a good reason. It has, in every way, solved little troubles. It has helped us stop misfortunes from eating us alive.

I continue to ask, "Is there an alternative treatment for Peripheral Neuropathy?" My question in the two other articles I have written on this subject are about the value of high doses of injectable Vitamin B12 Supplement in the form of Methycobalamin. I guess I hope for a miracle but I am also realizing a hope that is saying yes back to me. Is there a cure for Autism or the milder variant of Autism disorder, Asperger's Disorder? That too is discussed and considered.
This is part THREE to my first article.and an update. This article will probably have a part four and maybe even five. I have a lot of feelings about it all. My husband suffers from Peripheral Neuropathy due to Agent Orange, White, Blue and Pink from his exposure to those toxins in Vietnam. He bathed in the Mekong Delta everyday and continually had Agent Orange, White, Blue and Pink, the toxins and heavy metals, on his skin in a heated tropical zone, for his nine month tour. It would be like spraying your entire body with a can of Raid and leaving it on your skin for almost a year.. pretty bad.
If you suffer from Peripheral Neuropathy due to diabetes or if you are looking for a cure or at least some hope for a cure for Autism or the milder variant of Autism disorder, Asperger's Disorder, I am writing this article, as well as my other ones on this subject, for you. I am also writing it for your caretakers if you have gotten that bad. I want you to know that I understand the limitations and angst and my heart feels sad for you as it does for my husband.
So, is there a cure? Is there at least some help or maybe at least a bit of relief?
As I have stated in my other articles, I confess I do not know. I only tell you of what the progress is of my husband Dennis. I mention Autism in its different forms because my husband's granddaughter has Autism. There is some research showing that it may be hereditary, in children and grandchildren of victims of Agent Orange related problems.
What's the progress that is being experienced by my husband?
He is not cured but there is further progress and reason to resume his regiment of high doses of injectable vitamin B in the form of Methycobalamin. I want to stress that it needs to be Vitamin B in the form of Methycobalamin. There are other forms of Vitamin B, it must be Methycobalamin.
The progress?
One thing that has changed is the nausea from all the pain meds he is on. I will not state what those meds here, but take my word please, because I am trying to be as candid and honest as I can, that he is on enough to knock most people out. Lots of meds diminish ones quality of life. Throwing up is a biggie. After he takes his injection the nausea, at its worst, dissolves.
Two-The shaking has for the most part subsided. I mentioned this in my second article but it bares repeating because it is a side affect that is one of the most difficult to overcome and one that is distracting both for the victim of Peripheral Neuropahty and the people around them. No more shaking in bed and a certain calmness has settled over him.
ThreeAny form of vitamin B helps ones mood. When someone suffers from chronic pain they are often pretty darn crabby. Dennis' mood it softer now with these injections.
Four This is a huge! (and pardon the pun here, it is unavoidable) Often men, who take a lot of meds, develop Peyronie's disease. Peyronie's disease is a deformation of the penis, often resulting in a sharp physical bend in the organ, frequently interfering with normal sexual function. That problem of the bend? Has been cured! It really has, for Dennis anyway. My goal here is to be perfectly honest about the effects of the injections he is taking and I think that it one finds that such an important factor as this, no matter how embarrassing, it should be shared. Keep in mind however, I make no claims for anyone else, I only tell you what is so for Dennis and I.
FiveNot long ago Dennis had around four days without his alternative treatment for Peripheral Neuropathy, high doses of injectable Vitamin B12 Supplement UK in the form of Methycobalamin. There was a difference and it became clear to me and to Dennis that his condition was indeed improved by this alternative treatment.
In conclusion to this article anyway, I am still hopeful. I will continue to monitor my husbands progress. I hope that my efforts to be honest and candid will in some way bring you some hope as well. Is there a cure for Autism or the milder variant of Autism disorder, Asperger's Disorder? I don't know, I only know that high doses of Methycobalimin are relatively harmless, our bodies delete the extra. It may be hard on the kidneys however, but weighing that with the alternative still demands consideration in my very humble opinion.
Love your life.. remember that this is Life Take One!
