FAQ

Frequently asked questions. 1. What is in EZorb Calcium? EZorb Calcium is made of organic compounds. Unlike inorganic calcium sources such as calcium carbonate, calcium citrate or calcium gluconate, which are easily found in the earth as reefs, rocks or limestone, EZorb Calcium is scientifically synthesized based on Elixir Industry's proprietary technology, and is guaranteed to be soluble for absorption and subsequent bio-utilization. EZorb Calcium is made of anhydrous l-aspartic acid chelates of calcium, also referred to as anhydrous calcium aspartate. Anhydrous calcium aspartate is the most stable form of calcium aspartate. It is created by binding molecules of l-aspartic acids to atoms of calcium. Laboratory tests show that anhydrous calcium aspartate is 6 times more stable than other forms of calcium aspartate. Among various forms of calcium aspartate, anhydrous calcium aspartate stands out with an unprecedented 92% absorption rate. L-aspartic acid is one of the important amino acids that make up the human body. When bonded to calcium, l-aspartic acids serve as body guards to protect calcium against attacks from inorganic compounds regularly found in foodstuffs. They also function as transport media to deliver calcium to the destination where calcium consumption takes place. The raw materials of EZorb are extracted from plants and vegetables.

2. Why is EZorb Calcium superior to inorganic calcium sources? In contrast to the high-tech nature of EZorb Calcium, common inorganic minerals that are used in majority of vitamin and mineral supplements today are minerals that are easily found in nature or in the earth as rocks or limestone. EZorb Calcium is formed of l-aspartic acid chelates of calcium. L-aspartic acid chelates of calcium (also referred to as anhydrous calcium aspartate) and common inorganic calcium supplements are not considered in the same league in the school of nutrition. First of all, EZorb Calcium is substantially more bioavailable than common inorganic minerals. In order for calcium supplements to be absorbed by body, they have to be soluble in the luminal fluid of the small intestine. The pH of the small intestinal fluid below the duodenum is 7.0-7.2. Inorganic calcium supplements will form insoluble hydroxides and become nonabsorbable at this pH. EZorb Calcium, on the other hand, is well shielded by l-aspartic acids, and will not precipitate. As a result, EZorb Calcium commands an unmatched 92% absorption rate which is 3-9 times higher than that of calcium carbonate or calcium citrate. Secondly, EZorb is the only supplement that increases bone density by stimulating osteoblast activities and enhancing collagen production.* Thirdly, choosing EZorb Calcium also prevents gastrointestinal (G.I.) distress. Inorganic calcium supplements can cause magma precipitation. This precipitation can coat the mucous membrane, resulting in diarrhea and constipation. Anhydrous calcium aspartate, however, does not form magma precipitation, and using them will not cause stomach disorders, small intestine stones or kidney stones. In addition EZorb Calcium is kept intact from many compounds regularly found in foodstuffs. Those compounds that commonly exist in foods, such as carbonates, phosphates, oxalates and phytates, oftentimes attach themselves to inorganic calcium to form insoluble precipitates. These precipitates will further reduce the absorption of calcium in the small intestine. Finally using EZorb Calcium helps protect vitamin stability. Inorganic calcium may serve as a catalyst to further the oxidation and degradation of vitamins. Chelated calcium, on the other hand, are well shielded by bonded organic ligands. They will not come in contact with vitamin molecules; thus, the vitamins will be protected from oxidation and degradation. And since magma precipitation is prevented, EZorb Calcium will not absorb vitamins and cause them to become nonabsorbable - problems that common inorganic mineral are known to cause.

3. What are the benefits that I can get only from EZorb Calcium but not from others? EZorb Calcium has created a gap between itself and others with its unmatched high absorption rate and high bioavailability. Its unique approach of increasing bone density by stimulating osteoblasts activities and enhancing collagen production also sets it apart from competition.* There are many benefits you can only get from EZorb but not others. To name a few, choosing EZorb Calcium will help prevent G.I. distress, kidney stones or small intestine stones. Using it will also help protect vitamin stability. EZorb Calcium can be most effectively used for the following symptoms*: > osteoporosis, > loss of bone mass, > arthritis (osteoarthritis), > joint and cartilage damage, > bone fracture, > bone spur, > fibromyalgia, > back pain / lower back pain, > nerve / muscle pain, and > boost energy. EZorb is the best choice for children and teens for bone, teeth and muscle development. Its highest absorption rate guarantees that the young generation will have the opportunities to develop to their full potential. EZorb Calcium also plays an important role in cardiology and hepatology. In Asia, EZorb Calcium has been widely used for*: > protection against myocardial necrosis, > enhancement of liver function, > detoxification of digitalis, > bone tuberculosis, > fibro cyctic induration, and > treatment of osteoporosis and arthritis (osteoarthritis).

5. How do you compare EZorb Calcium to your competitors' products? Other inorganic sources of calcium supplements are not in the same league with EZorb Calcium. Competing products including various forms of amino acid chelates of calcium available for commercial use are in hydrous form, in other words, they all contain two or more crystalline water in the molecules. As a result, the bonding of amino acid molecules to calcium ions is often too weak to stay stable. Hydrous form of calcium aspartate will become insoluble in the pH environment of the small intestine, and will not be bioavailable for absorption. In essence they are not better than common inorganic calcium supplements. EZorb Calcium is made of anhydrous (waterless) chelates of two l-aspartic acid molecules and a single calcium ion. The strong and stable bonding of l-aspartic acid ligands to the calcium allows complete dissolution over a wide range of pH values. We guarantee that EZorb Calcium is soluble in the small intestine for absorption and subsequent bio-utilization.

6. How do you compare EZorb Calcium with Coral Calcium? The longevity myth of Okinawa have been around for centuries. It did not get attention from the West until recent years. After years of research, scientists have successfully identified one of the key factors that contribute to the unusually healthiness of the Okinawans: the drinking water in Okinawa contains organic calcium compounds that are highly absorbable. What is in the coral calcium? Coral calcium products are composed of calcium carbonate, the very same inorganic calcium compound you may find in other sources such as rocks or limestone. From a scientific point of view, there is hardly any difference between coral calcium and other once popular traditional calcium supplements such as Tums. They are all hard to absorb, and may all cause kidney stones, lung stones and small intestine stones in the long run. On the other hand, the development of EZorb Calcium was powered by many years of persistent research on the myth of Okinawa and a latest technology breakthrough. The technology invented literally reduced thousand-year evolution process in the nature to a few months. EZorb Calcium works even better than its natural counterpart. It has achieved significantly higher absorption and works in a wider range of pH environment. The tremendous success of EZorb Calcium is a victory of science and mankind. Once again it proves to the world that nature wonders CAN be explained by morden science, and CAN be enhanced to produce better results.

7. What should I expect to feel when I start taking EZorb Calcium? You will notice that you have more energy. And pre-existing symptoms such as pain, cramps, and weakness subside in about a week or two.

8. How could a calcium be effective on so many different types of diseases? When you grow older your bone, joint and muscle metabolisms natually slow down. Once that happens you will start to experience all sorts of bone/joint/muscle problems, including arthritis, osteoporosis, bone spurs, fibromyalgia and etc. For some people this process moves faster than others. That\'s why some people would experience bone loss, joint pain and bone spurs in 40s even 30s. The only way to correct all those problems is to raise your bone, joint and muscle metabolisms. That\'s exactly what EZorb does and that\'s why EZorb is so effective against many bone, joint and muscle problems.

9. Will EZorb Calcium cause kidney stones? It is common for inorganic calcium supplements to cause kidney stones and small intestine stones due to low absorption rate. EZorb Calcium is made of anhydrous calcium aspartate which boasts an exceptional 92% absorption rate. EZorb Calcium is one of the few, if not the only, calcium supplements that will not cause kidney stones.

10. Are there any side effects with EZorb Calcium? EZorb Calcium is perfectly safe. There are no known side effects to this date. EZorb Calcium is absolutely safe and does not interfere with any prescription drugs.

11. Can you give us some background about EZorb Calcium? EZorb Calcium is the result of a five-year project that was initiated and funded by the State Pharmaceutical Administration of China. The project was called upon by the Administration based on the fact that over 13% of the population in China suffer from symptoms of calcium deficiency. Significant correlation was identified between unbalanced food structure and calcium deficiency. Chinese have little demand for dairy products. The project team was formed of some of the best nutrition scientists across both sides of the Pacific Ocean. The scientists started out by tackling the Okinawan myth of longevity, seemingly related to massive amount of calcium supply from the water they drank. Once they had full grasp of the scientific facts they moved on and developed a new calcium supplement that retained and enhanced only the best of what Okinawans got from their water. The project was successfully completed in March of 2000 upon positive results from 12-month extensive clinical trials. A total of 2,031 were enrolled in the program. The population was formed of people in normal health conditions, women in different stages of life, and those with symptoms such as osteoporosis, arthritis, osteoarthritis, back pain, neck pain, and joint problems. Subjects of male and female, and of different ages, were selected to ensure fair representation. 94% of the population reported positive results after taking EZorb Calcium. EZorb has been recognized worldwide for its unmatched effectiveness on osteoporosis, osteoarthritis and other bone and joint disorders. EZorb is on top of doctors\' lists in many countries. In the Singapore and U.S., EZorb Calcium is marketed as a dietary supplement.

12. Can I use EZorb Calcium on my children? EZorb Calcium is the best friend for children and teens. Calcium is essential to their bones, teeth and muscle development. Choosing a good calcium supplement for your kids is critical to their growth. Traditional calcium supplements may damage their stomach and cause problems in the long run. EZorb has the highest absorption rate and it does not have any side effects. It is simply the best calcium source for all ages.

13. Why can't I just increase absorption by taking more dosage of inorganic calcium? You could. But as a result there will be more inorganic minerals precipitated in the stomach and small intestine, and the excess amount of magma precipitation will cause G.I. tract distress such as diarrhea or constipation. The precipitate can also absorb crucial vitamins as it is excreted, thus depriving the body of essential vitamin. Therefore, increasing the amount of common inorganic calcium supplements would actually be detrimental.

14. I'm a vegetarian. Which form of EZorb Calcium is best for me? EZorb Calcium Powder contains 100% pure calcium aspartate anhydrous (CalAA). CalAA is strictly derived from vegi source. The manufacturing process was designed and implemented specifically to meet vegetarians\' requirements.
