Colostrum
is the first collection of a thick creamy liquid, produced by the mammary gland of a mother shortly after birth, usually within the first 6 hours. It is rich in immune components (including antibodies and lactoferrin) as well as growth factors (including insulin-like growth factor, IGF, and transforming growth factor, TGF). Colostrum is also known for its high content of Immunoglobulins

LACTOFERRIN
Acts as antioxidant by diminishing the damaging effects of free radicals Binds and transport iron in the blood, making it beneficial for iron-deficiency anemia Stimulate production of interleukin, killer cells and other white blood cells and promotes the maturation of T-cells and B-cells

IGF & TGF
Promotes production of collagen and elastin Helps growth and regeneration of tissues Encourages muscle growth Boosts immune system

Immunoglobulins
Provides antibody activity in tissues Promotes the immune system against both viral and bacterial attacks .

TruCal is a natural source of milk minerals. Obtaining calcium from TruCal is advantageous as the balanced profile enhances calcium absorption and mineral retention. Fortification with calcium alone cannot provide the same benefits. The solution to achieving optimal bone growth and health is TruCal… the balanced approach.

In addition to calcium, other minerals such as phosphorus, magnesium, zinc, copper, iron and potassium, are critical for normal bone metabolism. TruCal provides a balanced mineral profile, similar to the mineral profile of bone.

Research has shown that TruCal is both readily absorbed and highly bio-available. A human clinical study measured TruCal’s impact on two sensitive bone bio-markers—Urine Helical Peptide (bone resorption) and Bone Alkaline Phosphatase (bone turnover)—in women. Consumption of TruCal resulted in significantly lower UHP and BAP values, indicating a decreased loss of bone mass, and thus stronger bones.

TruCal is for every stage of life. Consumption during childhood and adolescence increases the likelihood of achieving optimal peak bone mass, which is critical for a lifetime of strong, healthy bones. In adulthood, TruCal helps bones stay strong by helping to maintain bone mass.

Benefits of TruCal
• Provides the full range of minerals necessary for optimal bone growth and maintenance
• Clinically proven to improve bone density and bone tensile strength
• More effective than calcium carbonate at building strong bones and decreasing bone loss
• Clean label—100% natural source of calcium from milk .
