100% AUSTRALIAN GRASS FED AND FINISHED
Complete calcium supplement for home-made diets
Best described as ‘nature’s calcium’, Replace-A-Bone is sourced from 100% organic beef bones and contains the ideal physiological ratio of calcium and phosphorus in a microcrystalline structure that enhances absorption and bioavailability. Unlike synthetic calcium supplements, Replace-A-Bone also contains naturally occurring growth factors, glycosaminoglycans, collagen, essential trace minerals, and bone stimulating peptides that nourish and support the whole skeletal system for strength, flexibility, and remineralisation of bones.
✔ Targeted bone support
✔ Whole food source
✔ Superior bioavailability
✔ Suitable for puppies
✔ Sourced from ethically raised beef
Proudly Australian owned and made using 100% human-grade ingredients.
No artificial colours, flavours or preservatives.
Canine Ceuticals - Replace-A-Bone
- Meat is rich in phosphorus but contains very little calcium, so an all-meat diet will be deficient in calcium, making it critically important to add calcium back in.
- But when it comes to puppies, even an all-meat diet does not provide sufficient phosphorus for the rapid puppy growth stages, making Replace-A-Bone the perfect choice for all life stages.
- Replace-A-Bone provides the correct amounts of both calcium and phosphorus necessary for stronger bones, for increased bone mass index, to help avoid fractures and for improved dental health.
- Replace-A-Bone is made from whole bone, which contains the ideal physiological ratio of calcium and phosphorus in a microcrystalline structure that enhances absorption and bioavailability.
- Apart from fresh bones, Replace-A-Bone is the only source of calcium that should be fed to puppies and pregnant dogs.
- Replace-A-Bone contains bone stimulating peptides (IGF I & II, TGF β, Osteocalcin). Peptides are tissue-specific information molecules which influence gene expression. Peptides start the process of protein synthesis in cells and regulate proper cellular functioning. As our dogs age and are impacted by several different stressors (environmental toxins, poor nutrition, stress, etc.) they are no longer able to form new peptides at the same rate as during their youth. Deficiency of these nutrients results in cellular dysfunction, degenerative diseases, accelerated ageing, and bone loss. One of the most effective ways to counter this deficiency is the consumption of bone specific peptides.
- Replace-A-Bone contains calcium from microcrystalline hydroxyapatite (MCHA). MCHA from whole bone is considered to be more effective than standard calcium supplements in maintaining bone mass in human populations. In addition, it is suggested that MCHA improves pain symptoms and accelerates fracture consolidation in patients with osteopenia or osteoporosis and is significantly more effective in preventing bone loss than calcium carbonate.
