In a low vitamin D state, the intestine absorbs 10% to 15% of dietary calcium compared to 30% to 40% with adequate vitamin D levels. Calcitite Hi-Strength contains 333 IU of vitamin D per tablet to assist calcium absorption and enhance skeletal strength.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA meta-analysis of 12 randomised controlled trials has shown 700 IU to 800 IU of vitamin D to enhance skeletal strength.\u003c\/strong\u003e Vitamin D significantly reduced the risk of hip fracture by 26% and non-vertebral fracture by 23%. Vitamin D has also been shown to play a role in musculoskeletal function, with vitamin D receptors being identified in human muscle tissue. In a separate, double-blind RCT, 800 IU of vitamin D significantly improved musculoskeletal function, reducing the amount of falls in older patients by 49% over three months.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDirections:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eAdults: Take 1 tablet three times daily with meals, or as directed by your healthcare professional.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStorage:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eStore below 30° C\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pack-stock svelte-1si2c3a\"\u003e\n\u003ch5 id=\"product-pack\" class=\"product-pack svelte-1si2c3a\"\u003ePack:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e120 Tablets\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Metagenics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53283967861012,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/bodywiseherbaldispensary.co.nz\/products\/metagenics-calcitite-protect-120-caps","provider":"Bodywise Herbal Dispensary","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
