- OsteoBlast-4™ bone and joint matrix with glucosamine, chondroitin, and collagen
Maintaining strong, dense, and healthy bones helps ensure a foundation for aging well. Even the most health-conscious people often underestimate the nutritional demands of maintaining bone density through life. As we age, bone mineral density drops and bone architecture is disrupted, a change especially common in women.
Bone health depends on both bone mineral density and bone strength, which comes from a matrix of collagen fibers reinforced with calcium, phosphorus, and other minerals. Calcium is the most commonly taken mineral supplement and comes in many forms. Most calcium supplement products use inferior forms like dicalcium phosphate or calcium carbonate, which are inexpensive and poorly absorbed. Only calcium hydroxyapatite is the form that naturally occurs in bone.

The Science
Osteo-Rx™ is built on microcrystalline hydroxyapatite concentrate (MCHC), a calcium with the same 2:1 calcium-to-phosphorus ratio the body forms. Because it supplies calcium in the form found in bone, it absorbs rapidly and brings along trace minerals and matrix proteins that make up healthy bone.
Ipriflavone: A synthetic isoflavone that slows osteoclasts (bone-eroding cells) so osteoblasts (bone-building cells) can add bone mass, tipping the balance toward a net gain.
OsteoBlast-4™: Hi-Tech's low-molecular-weight bone and joint matrix: sodium hyaluronic acid (10%), chondroitin sulfate (40%), hydrolyzed type II collagen (10%), and 99% pure glucosamine hydrochloride (40%), the connective tissue ingredients behind its joint health support.
Explotab® Delivery: The tablet uses a patented super-disintegration ingredient so it bursts within minutes, releasing calcium and the other key nutrients for absorption faster than a capsule would.
Bone support is worth starting early in adult life as part of a healthy lifestyle, especially for women, who are more prone to bone loss.

Other Supplements for Bones and Joints
- Calcium and its Cofactors: Calcium is the mineral bones are built from, but it needs vitamin D for calcium absorption and vitamin K to guide it into bone. A balanced diet with dairy or leafy greens covers some; a calcium supplement covers the gap.
- Vitamin D: Your body needs vitamin D to absorb calcium, and many people run low, since skin does not make any unless you are outside. A vitamin D supplement is the reliable route when sun exposure is limited.
- Joint Support: Glucosamine, chondroitin, and collagen support cartilage and connective tissue, which is the joint side of the equation alongside the bone side.
- Omega-3s: Fish oil and other omega-3 supplements have been studied for joint support and may help with joint stiffness.
- Vitamin C: Found in citrus fruit, vitamin C is a cofactor the body uses to build collagen, part of both bone and joint structure.
