Biotics Research Osteo-B Plus offers comprehensive nutritional support for bone health. While the importance of calcium is well known, new evidence clearly supports the view that multiple nutrients are essential to nurture the skeletal system. Osteo-B Plus supplies these essential nutrients along with important synergists.
Why you may need Osteo-B Plus: Bone is a dynamic tissue that requires adequate nutrition for maintenance and growth. Maintaining a healthy balance between bone building osteoblasts and bone dissolving osteoclasts is dependent on adequate supplies of distinct nutrients. Osteoporosis is a condition associated with the abnormal reduction of bone density resulting from the excess loss of bone minerals, most notably calcium, often leading to fractures of the vertebrae and hips. While men are also affected, osteoporosis primarily affects women. The importance of calcium in preventing osteoporosis is well established. Interestingly, published data shows the majority of those suffering from osteoporosis are not necessarily calcium-deficient. Evidence clearly supports the view that multiple nutrients are essential to support a healthy skeletal system.
Why your healthcare practitioner recommends Osteo-B Plus from Biotics Research: Osteo-B Plus supplies a wide array of essential and important nutrients to assist in the preservation of existing bone mineral mass and protein matrix and to support repair mechanisms. The comprehensive formula of Osteo-B Plus includes: Calcium, supplied in the highly bioavailable citrate form, which is especially important for those having difficulty absorbing calcium due to conditions associated with low stomach acid (such as hypochlorhydria). Magnesium is necessary for remodeling, and is involved in the conversion of vitamin D to its active hormone form. In osteoporotic women, abnormal mineralization has been correlated with low magnesium levels. Micro-emulsified vitamin D supports calcium absorption. Manganese is included as it is required for the synthesis of connective tissue. Zinc enhances the action of vitamin D and is a co-factor for alkaline phosphatase, an important enzyme found in bone. Copper is a co-factor for the enzyme that forms cross-links between collagen in connective tissue. Boron affects the actions of hormones associated with bone health. Silicon is required for the structural integrity of connective tissue and bone strength. Vitamin K is required for the synthesis of the bone protein that attracts calcium to bone tissue. Other important nutrients contained in Osteo-B Plus include B-Complex vitamins, vitamin C, purified chondroitin sulfate, SOD, and catalase.

Quality Control - What Sets Biotics Apart
The Biotics Research way!
At Biotics Research Corporation, we manufacture our own branded products on site, in our own state of the art facilities, allowing for complete control of the entire manufacturing process. In our on-site laboratories, the highly skilled members of our Quality Control Unit, utilize modern, sophisticated technologies and validated analytical methods to test incoming raw materials, monitor manufacturing processes, perform in- process testing, and test all finished products prior to their release for shipment. In fact, many aspects of our cGMPs (current Good Manufacturing Practices) exceed the new, recently enacted FDA guidelines for dietary supplements in order to ensure the safety and effectiveness of our products. The Quality Control Unit (QCU) has the authority to approve and/or reject all specifications and procedures associated with the production and release of all raw materials, packaging materials and finished products, including test methods and results, instrument calibrations, and processing records. The QCU conducts all internal audits, and validates and audits all raw material and packaging suppliers and service vendors as well.
All incoming raw materials are subject to appropriate testing prior to their release for production. Tests conducted include identity, potency, biological activity, microbiological, including bacteria, yeast and mold (including aflatoxins) and heavy metals (arsenic, cadmium, lead & mercury). Retained samples are maintained of all raw materials and finished products for future testing requirements (raw material stability and finished product expiration date verification).
All bulk finished products (tablets & capsules) are inspected and subjected to metal detection prior to being sampled by QC. They are then subject to appropriate disintegration and/or dissolution testing, and potency testing prior to being released to packaging. All liquid and powder products are tested for potency prior to packaging as well. Finally, microbiological testing is performed on all finished products and document reconciliation is completed prior to being released for shipment.
All testing is performed by our trained QC personnel using state of the art laboratory instrumentation including High Pressure Liquid Chromatography (HPLC), ICP, Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry (AA), gel electrophoresis, FT -IR, Ultra Violet spectrophotometry, Thin Layer chromatography and Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC- MS).
Unlike many companies that are struggling to meet the new GMP requirements established by the FDA, companies that are being regulated into implementing quality programs, extensive Quality Control has always been part of the corporate fabric of Biotics Research Corporation.
From day one, the mantra of Biotics Research Corporation has been “Innovation and Quality.” Our goals remain unchanged – utilize innovative ideas and carefully researched concepts with advanced techniques to develop products of superior quality and effectiveness – bringing you “The Best of Science and Nature”.
