Jarrow Formulas BoneUp, 240 Capsules

Jarrow Formulas BoneUp combines microcrystalline hydroxyapatite (MCHA) calcium with vitamins D3, K2 and C and supporting minerals. This 240-capsule bottle is the standard BoneUp formula, distinct from Ultra BoneUp and BoneUp Three Per Day.

MCHA calcium with vitamins D3 and K2

The manufacturer identifies StimuCal MCHA as a bovine-derived calcium source that also contains bone proteins, including type I collagen. The formula includes vitamins D3, K2 and C alongside minerals such as zinc, copper, manganese and boron.

The manufacturer lists 1,000 mg calcium, 200 mg vitamin C and 25 mcg vitamin D per six-capsule daily intake. These are daily totals, not amounts per capsule. The Supplement Facts serving size is two capsules; that serving lists 66.7 mg vitamin C and 8.3 mcg (333 IU) vitamin D3. Check the current bottle for the complete nutrient amounts and forms.

Bovine-derived ingredients and capsule details

The calcium source is bovine-derived, and the capsule shell contains bovine gelatin, so this formula is not vegetarian or vegan. Other ingredients listed by the manufacturer are microcrystalline cellulose, capsule (bovine gelatin), vegetable-source magnesium stearate and silicon dioxide.

The manufacturer identifies BoneUp as non-GMO and gluten-free and lists no wheat, gluten, soybeans, dairy, egg, fish/shellfish, peanuts/tree nuts or sesame. Review the current package for complete ingredient and allergen information.

Two capsules three times daily with meals

Adults take two capsules three times a day, for a total of six capsules, with meals, or as directed by a qualified healthcare professional. Follow the current package's directions if they differ.

The 240-capsule bottle contains 120 two-capsule servings. At the suggested six-capsule daily intake, it provides 40 days, not 120 or 240 days. Do not substitute the lower capsule schedule from the separate Three Per Day formula.

Precautions and storage

Consult a healthcare professional before use if pregnant, nursing, under 18, taking medication, especially anticoagulants such as warfarin or Coumadin, or managing a medical condition. Review other calcium- and vitamin-containing supplements with your healthcare professional before combining products.

Discontinue use if adverse reactions occur. Keep out of reach of children and store in a cool, dry place. Read the current bottle's complete warnings and directions before use.
