Who should use osvalin?

Bone and joint tissue are constantly being created and replaced by the body.

In a healthy body, these processes are in balance (equilibrium of bone and cartilage metabolism).

We recommend taking Osvalin in cases of increased bone loss, bone microarchitecture disorders, and excessive joint wear.

These conditions primarily affect older people, post-menopausal women, and people with osteoporosis and osteoarthritis. Osvalin can also be helpful in the case of changes to the bone and cartilage metabolism caused by certain medications (e.g. cortisone).
