HAVANA, Cuba, March 26 (acn) Researchers from the Chemistry Department of the National Center for Scientific Research (CENIC) have created a new bio-product called Suplecal, capable of supplementing insufficient calcium in the bones.
The natural product has the therapeutic action of serving as a supplement to the human diet and contains 500 milligrams of calcium carbonate without the presence of other chemical substances, according to statements made by Yarelys Martín, MSc. to Juventud Técnica magazine.
It’s made from fragments of the Porites-porites coral species remaining from the first production stage of Coralina biomaterials, destined for bone implants.
The medicine, approved for sale in 2008, is useful in the treatment of patients at risk of calcium deficiencies or in patients with insufficient calcium, and it is also very helpful to treat and prevent osteoporosis. The specialists recommend taking one or two capsules a day with meals.
We expect to produce and distribute some 2,000 bottles in different Havana drugstores this year, and our desire is to extend this result to the entire country, pointed out the researcher.
