Senior Bone & Joint with UC-II
About This Product
Puritan's Pride Senior Bone & Joint with UC-II is an 'Other Combinations' supplement formulated for bone and joint health, containing a total of four ingredients. It provides 1000 mg of Calcium, which is at a clinically studied dosage, alongside 10 mcg (400 IU) of Vitamin D and 50 mg of Magnesium. Both the Vitamin D and Magnesium dosages are considered underdosed based on current research for comprehensive bone and joint support. The product includes 40 mg of UC-II standardized Cartilage. With an N+ Score of 55 and a grade of F, its performance is impacted by the underdosed ingredients and a low formula completeness score, despite having 100% label transparency. This supplement may be considered by seniors seeking some bone support, but may require additional supplementation for optimal nutrient intake.
