It is formulated with a unique blend of ingredients, including bovine bone, calcium, and manganese, which work together to nourish and strengthen the skeletal system.

They believe that the natural ingredients in this supplement can help to promote overall health and well-being by supporting the body's own healing mechanisms. 

The following information is a summary and review based on Dr. Candy’s professional experience and recommendations. Any summary or statement has not been provided nor influenced by the manufacturer.

What is a Protomorphagen?

Protomorphagens are particles that help the body heal and regenerate. They are made from animal organs and contain nutrients and proteins that support the body's tissues and cells. When you take a protomorphagen, the nutrients and proteins are easily absorbed into your body, where they can help improve cellular metabolism, support immune function, and facilitate tissue repair and regeneration.
