Question 1

How much rice flour is in each capsule?

Accepted Answer

Hardly any...
 
Our only product with a flow constituent is our Bone Marrow... one of the reasons that bone marrow is so incredibly nourishing is because it is so rich in fat soluble activators which makes it impossible to flow through encapsulation machines. To bring this health promoting product to market, we added the smallest, most minuscule amount of certified organic rice concentrate and silica. For perspective, a pinch of salt is about 300 mg... that said, the amount of organic rice concentrate in one capsule is a fraction (1/30th) of a single pinch of salt... this might equate to the equivalent of a couple of grains of salt.
 
I hope this helps!

Question 2

Between this product and Bovine Tracheal Cartilage, which has closest amino acid profile to the collagen peptides products from other brands?

Accepted Answer

To be certain, collagen peptides offer many benefits… however, collagen peptides do not contain bone marrow (nor) the incredible nourishment of the bone matrix, both of which are at the heart of our Bone Marrow product… this is because commercial collagen peptide supplements come from the hides, not the bones.
   
There’s a whole lot more to the story when it comes to our Bone Marrow product than just the all mighty collagen. For instance, our Bone Marrow provides everything that’s in the bone matrix (calcium hydroxyapatite, osteocalcium phosphate, collagen, proteoglycans, matrix proteins, cytokines and growth factors, etc), the bone marrow (fat soluble activators and stem cells), the cartilage and yes, it provides collagen peptides too.
  
If you where to compare our Bone Marrow with our Bovine Tracheal Cartilage, you would find similar amino acid profiles high in glycine, proline and hydroxyproline. It turns out that there are several overlapping benefits because both products are rich in bovine cartilage. If you want the added nourishment that's expressed from the bone matrix and bone marrow, go for our Bone Marrow product. If you want more of the cartilage and collagen, go for the Bovine Tracheal Cartilage. I hope this helps!

Question 3

How much mchc is in each serving?

Accepted Answer

Our Grassfed Bone Marrow is a whole food dietary supplement that comes from the femur bone all the way down to the knuckle's end. This is what we refer to as "whole bone extract" which provides the bone matrix (calcium hydroxyapatite, osteocalcium phosphate, collagen, proteoglycans, matrix proteins, cytokines and growth factors), the bone marrow (fat soluble activators and stem cells), the cartilage and yes, it provides collagen peptides too. These nourishing constituents are in the proper physiological amounts that exist in harmony with nature.

I am sorry that I can not be more specific at this time. We are in the process of developing assays for some of our products. Though this is not a requirement for label compliance purposes, we see value in providing as much information as possible to our customers. For the time being, I hope that you will find some value in knowing that these healing nutrients are offered to us in the same balance that is found in nature.

Question 4

Can you explain what "bone matrix" is? Also, does this product have naturally occurring silicon for bone health?

Accepted Answer

The bone matrix is essentially that which makes up the complex architecture of the osseous tissues... our bones. It's what gives our bones strength, flexibility and remodeling ability. The bone matrix contains calcium hydroxyapatite, osteocalcium phosphate, collagen, proteoglycans, matrix proteins, cytokines, growth factors and much more. Included in the "much more" is the naturally occurring silicon that you asked about.
