The Best Calcium Supplement

description

This slideshow is to educate people that the Best Calcium Supplement is actually Calmodulin (CaM), which is the trasporter and regulator for Calcium ions to go into the cells. Without CaM, calcium cannot be absorped into the cell which leads to calcium defiency. Serious calcium defiency will cause osteopenia and even osteoporosis. Too much of calcium causes calcification. Therefore, calcium needs to be regulated and balanced by Calmodulin.

Bone loss is primarily due to Bone Remodeling Process, Unchangeable risk factors such as gender, body size and etc, and changeable risk factors such as coffee consumption and lack of exercises.

What is Bone Remodeling? Basically there are 2 types of bone cells. Osteoclast which destroys worn out cells (Resorption) so that Osteoblast can regenerate new bone cells. This is how the bone remodeling process works.

However, after the age of 30, things changed. The number of Osteoclasts increases and they tend to work more aggressively destroying old and worn out cells. On the other hand, Osteoblasts become inactive or rather they work slower. Their efficiency of making new bone cells decreases. This means that they cannot replenish the bone faster than the Osteoclasts destroying the bone cells.

Therefore, after the age of 30, bone tends to become porous which leads to Osteopenia and even Osteoporosis. Coupled with some unchangeable and changeable risk factors, it makes bone degradation becomes even faster.

Another 1% is stored in blood

So, the 99% or the 1% is important?

Page 8: The Best Calcium Supplement

Answer is

SO WHICH IS MORE IMPORTANT, BONE 99% OR CELL 1%?

BOTH!99% of CALCIUM forms human skeletal system, which without it we can’t even

stand, sit or move. Don’t forget, blood cells are made from BONE too!

Another 1%, though it’s minute, the roles it plays are MAGNIFICIENT! Because this 1% helps in:

Activate Enzyme SystemActiveness and Production of CellMaintain heartbeat and muscle contractionMaintain Cell Membrane Permeability and Stability

Regulating Nervous System (Signal Transduction)Normalize Immune SystemPromote Hormone SecretionPromote Blood Clotting

Page 9: The Best Calcium Supplement

WHY IS CALCIUM THE MOST IMPORTANT NUTRIENT?

However, it has to be balanced. Because -

According to WHO’s statistic, 106 in 135 recorded human common diseases are

related to imbalance calcium metabolism.

Consuming Calcium & Vitamin D doesn't help in preventing Bone Fracture

Page 14: The Best Calcium Supplement

United StatesNew Zealand

Most of the Americans and New Zealanders drink milk, take Calcium supplements everyday and have exposure to sunshine. Why are they having the highest pelvic fracture rate?

Page 15: The Best Calcium Supplement

DO THESE QUESTIONS EVER CROSS YOUR MIND?

1.Why is there Calcium deficiency even when you take Calcium?

2.Why do people who regularly consume Calcium still have gaps in their Dexa Scan, a Bone Mineral Density test?

3.Why are people still suffering from Osteoporosis even when they consume Calcium?

Fortunately there is Professor Wang Kai-Wah, who discovered CaM in 1972 while she was doing cancer researches. Since then, researches as well as clinical trials on CaM was done on mice, monkeys and cancer patients by her.

We cannot get CaM from food but luckily we have Professor Wang Kai-Wah who made it into edible health food.

CaM is produced by single cell culture through Biotechnology. It is formed by 148 amino acids, including both Essential and Non-essential. This formula is not enough as 50% of any food that goes through digestive tract will be destroyed by stomach acid. Therefore, Lecithin is used to cover the combination, so that Ca2+ - CaM complex can be protected from destruction at stomach and reaches cell where it is then be absorbed fully.

5 Main Functions of CAM:

1. Bi-directional regulation of Ca2+ concentration

2. Coordination of the nervous system and endocrine system

3. Energy starter and activation of enzyme system

4. Promote the regeneration of cells

5. Regulate immune function

This Taiwanese old lady has 90o hunchback that causes stomach bleeds due to compression. The effort of inserting endoscope was finally done after 21 attemps.

CaM does not magically turn her bone to straight. But rather, CaM helps in replenishing Ca into bone that makes her bone becomes stronger. As bone becomes stronger, it has the strength to support body weight and she can stand up straight. Or else, weak bones tend to be crooked and cause hunchback and arthritis.

2. Coordination of the nervous system and endocrine system

CaM helps in regulating nervous system where spine and leg soreness and pain experienced due to severe loss of Calcium can be relieved.

Signal transduction in neurons requires Calcium. Some nervous system diseases such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s Disease are due to insufficient Calcium in neurons which leads to improper signal transduction. Supplementing Calmodulin to ensure that Calcium is being absorbed into cell helps in activating signal transduction which in turn, alleviate Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s Disease symptoms.

As CaM helps in regulating endocrine system, diseases caused by hormone imbalance such as diabetes, obesity and even pigmentation and black spots especially during menopause could also be alleviated.

3. CAM = Energy starter and activation of enzyme system

CaM helps in activating mitochondria and enhancing ATP generation. Besides, CaM also enhances S.O.D enzyme to remove free radicals. Act as an energy starter, CaM enhances vitality.

As CaM activates a series of biochemical reactions in body by activating enzyme system. This improves gastrointestinal tract (GIT) function and increase cell metabolic rate.

Cell division (phase M) – the important regulator - CaMK-II

The CaMK-II protein level wasunchanged during the cell cycle. When the cells were synchronized, the autonomous activity was increased only in M.

These results indicate that the physiologically relevant portion of CaMK-II is activated only in M, and that the net activation of CaMK-II is required in mitosis.

Mdm Tsie from Taiwan suffered from Cellulitis due to a wound on her

foot. She was being transferred from

hospital to hospital but it does not seem to work for her. After consuming CAM, wound started to

heal. CaM activates CaM K-II which promotes cell

replication.

The adult bone marrow stem cells

Inside the adult bone marrow, there are two types of stem cells, Hematopoietic Stem Cell (HSC) & Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSC).

HSC inside the bone marrow can differentiate into red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets to maintain normal function of blood. Besides, it can differentiate into lymphocytes and macrophages to regulate immune function.

MSC was mainly found in bone marrow, can be found in cord blood, peripheral blood and adipose tissue too. MSC can differentiate into various type of cells, including osteoblasts, chondrocytes, fat cells, muscle cells, etc. In addition, MSC can support the hematopoetic process of HSC.

Page 41: The Best Calcium Supplement

Mesenchymal Stem Cell (MSC)Bone marrow will be stimulated to release MSC when it receives the signals from the injured tissues. MSC will mobilize into circulation to the injured tissues and undergo differentiation for tissue regeneration and healing in order to maintain the constant number of body cells.

To summarize:

Without CaM, all these biochemical reactions in human body cannot be carried out.

CaM + Ca2+

Analogy:

Ca2+ = Lock CaM = Key

A key is needed to lock or unlock a lock. The key is like a regulator. Likewise, CaM is the regulator for Ca2+.

Without CaM (the key), many of the biochemical reactions in the human body cannot be carried out. Moreover, it is to no avail if you have enough Ca2+ (Lock) but no CaM (Key) to activate these series of biochemical reactions in the body.

5. Regulate immune function

CaM regulate immune function by activating macrophages . Activated macrophages will engulf and destroy substances that are harmful to the body, such as toxins and even tumour cells.

In addition, CaM also prevents tumour cells from obtaining nutrients. Cancer patients often feel weak. Therefore, CAM is essential for nutrients replacement especially for cancer patients after they have done chemotherapy or radiotherapy.

CaM activates macrophages and helps in preventing cancer and bacteria invasion, enhancing immune system and eliminating age spots and lipomas.

CAM TM

Basically contains Calmodulin, Skimmed Milk, Lecithin, American Ginseng and Soybean Extract.

Please note that it is American Ginseng but not Ginseng. (Ginseng is reported to be heaty and breast and ovarian cancer-causing). Soybean Extract is without the outer layer that contains Purine. Therefore, it does not affect Uric Acid, rather CaM regulates nervous system which reduces ache and endocrine system which promotes balanced hormones.
