Calgenex Introduces Calci-CLEAR Line of Dietary Supplements: Addresses Calcification of Arteries and Soft Tissues

TAMPA, Fla. (Business Wire EON/PRWEB ) April 12, 2007 -- Calgenex Corporation announced today the introduction of Calci-CLEAR, an exclusive line of dietary supplements addressing calcification of the soft tissues including the hardening of the arteries and inflammation. Calgenex is one of the few companies in the world addressing this pervasive yet often ignored health condition.

Soft tissue calcification is the abnormal hardening or thickening of tissue into bone like material sometimes referred to as hard plaque, stones, or calcified deposits. Calcification is not classified as a disease; however calcium deposits are often associated with many chronic diseases including cancer, arthritis, diabetes, kidney stones, psoriasis, and heart disease. Calcium buildup in arteries is an early warning sign of increased risk of coronary heart disease. People with higher arterial calcium levels are more likely to develop atherosclerosis, stroke and other heart ailments later in life than those with normal levels. In fact, some researchers and physicians now argue that degree of calcification is a more important risk factor for heart disease than cholesterol.

Historically, calcium deposits were thought to occur later in various health conditions, although no exact mechanism has been discovered. Recent studies illustrate, however, that calcium deposits may play a much more active role. In fact, new research is showing that nano-sized calcium phosphate crystals in the soft tissues can harm cells and provoke inflammation.

We recognize that calcification and inflammation are at the heart of many of the health conditions affecting Americans today, stated Grant Carlson, president and CEO of Calgenex. It is a little known fact that calcification is associated with more than half of diseases on the leading cause of death list. We developed Calci-CLEAR to help rid the body of calcium phosphate crystals that may result in soft tissue calcification and to potentially improve the quality of life for countless individuals.

Calci-CLEAR is a Three Step System that works in five ways:

  • Cleanses calcium crystals from the body through the use of sequestering agents that help bind calcium crystals;
  • Activates proteins that inhibit soft tissue calcification, such as the matrix GLA protein, through the use of ingredients such as Vitamin K2;
  • Promotes mineral balance by rebalancing the body's mineral stores to the ratios that nature intended;
  • Neutralizes harmful free radicals through powerful antioxidants; and
  • Protects cardiovascular health through many heart healthy ingredients such as Pycnogenol, Schizandra, Astragalus, Pomegranate, Grape seed extract, Resveratrol and Coenzyme Q10.(1)

The Calci-CLEAR system will soon be available through physician offices and is currently available online at www.calgenex.com or www.calciclear.com.

Calgenex Corporation manufactures and markets condition specific dietary supplements, topical OTC drugs and personal care products. Calgenex is located at 9950 Princess Palm Ave., Suite 320 in Tampa, Florida.
