The human skeleton consists of more than 200 individual bones, all fulfilling different tasks. In addition to cartilage tissue, our bodies are supported by bone tissue. Bone tissue provides protection for the soft parts underneath it and serves as a point of insertion for the muscles. Another important role of bone is its metabolic activity (calcium household, blood formation in red bone marrow).

Many factors contribute to the deterioration of our musculoskeletal system. This system, consisting of many connective tissues such as joints, ligaments, and tendons, is continuously being tested by various factors such as stress, improper diet, and exercise. A healthy musculoskeletal system is important for everyone - the young, the elderly, sports enthusiasts, people constantly on their feet, and people using repetitious movements such as computer keyboarding. Failure to maintain a healthy musculoskeletal system and joints can lead to a reduction in overall health and wellbeing. Therefore, supplying your body with the proper nutrients found in Standard Process supplements is vital in keeping your body’s connective tissues healthy.
