Ingrédients non médicinaux : Ingrédients non médicinaux : Cellulose microcristalline, stéaryl fumarate de sodium. Capsule : hypromellose.
Usage ou fins recommandés : Augmente la densité minérale osseuse. Le MBP (protéine basique du lait), un complexe de protéine actif provenant de la fraction de lactosérum du lait, agit avec le calcium et peut avoir un effet positif sur la santé osseuse en réduisant la perte osseuse (résorption) et en augmentant la densité minérale osseuse.
Dose recommandée (femme adulte) : Prendre 1 capsule par jour avec ou sans nourriture, ou selon les recommandations d'un professionnel de la santé. Ne pas écraser ni mélanger les capsules - avaler les capsules entières.
Mises en garde : Ce produit est déconseillé aux personnes qui ont des allergies aux produits laitiers. Consulter un praticien de soins de santé avant l'emploi en cas de grossesse, d'allaitement ou de prise de médicaments. Consulter un praticien de soins de santé si les symptômes persistent ou s'aggravent. Garder hors de la portée des enfants. Conserver dans un endroit frais et sec. Scellé pour votre protection - ne pas utiliser si le sceau est brisé.

What the research says about MBP
Peer-reviewed studies on MBP (milk basic protein) - shared for education, not as claims about this finished product. AOR Advanced Bone Protection's claim is the statement authorized under its Natural Health Product licence, NPN 80014819.
Increased bone density in healthy women
A 6-month, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial found that 40 mg/day of MBP significantly increased calcaneus (heel) bone mineral density compared with placebo in healthy adult women.
Human RCTConfirmed in a second controlled trial
A further 6-month trial in healthy young women found a significantly greater gain in lumbar-spine bone mineral density with MBP (40 mg/day) than with placebo, alongside favourable changes in bone-turnover markers.
Human RCTReviewed as a bone-density ingredient
A Japanese food-for-specified-health-use (FOSHU) review summarized controlled beverage trials in women aged 20 to 50, reporting a significantly greater percentage increase in radial bone density with MBP than with placebo.
ReviewAn osteoclast-inhibiting protein identified
Researchers purified bovine angiogenin from MBP and showed it inhibits osteoclast-mediated bone resorption by suppressing the F-actin ring and the resorption enzymes TRAP and cathepsin K.
MechanismA second resorption-blocking component
Lactoperoxidase purified from MBP was shown to inhibit RANKL-driven osteoclast formation by downregulating TRAF6 signalling and downstream inflammatory pathways.
MechanismMBP identified as milk's bone-reinforcing fraction
Research identified active substances within the basic protein fraction of milk (MBP) that promote bone formation and suppress bone resorption, and showed MBP enhanced femoral bone strength in ovariectomized rats.
ReviewSupports cartilage cell activity
In laboratory research on a chondrogenic cell line, MBP promoted the proliferation of chondrocytes (cartilage-forming cells) and increased expression of the cartilage-collagen gene Col2.
Lab studyLess breakdown of bone collagen
In a controlled human trial, MBP supplementation significantly reduced urinary N-telopeptide and deoxypyridinoline, markers of the breakdown of bone's type-I collagen matrix.
Human RCTShifting the collagen turnover balance
A 6-month trial found MBP lowered urinary NTx (collagen breakdown) while raising serum osteocalcin (a bone-formation marker), consistent with a more favourable bone-remodeling balance.
Human RCTDepends on healthy calcium status
In mice, MBP's bone-protective, anti-resorptive effect required normal calcium homeostasis - the benefit was blunted when calcium regulation via vitamin D signalling was disrupted.
Animal studyAn effect beyond mineral intake alone
In a controlled trial, MBP significantly increased bone mineral density independent of subjects' dietary mineral and vitamin intake, suggesting a mechanism that complements calcium intake itself.
Human RCTOne of several bone-supportive milk compounds
A review of milk and dairy products for osteoporosis prevention placed MBP alongside calcium, casein phosphopeptide and lactoferrin as functional compounds that contribute to bone health.
ReviewSlowed bone loss after menopause
A 6-month controlled trial in healthy menopausal women found lumbar bone mineral density increased with MBP (40 mg/day) while it declined on placebo, with reduced urinary NTx in the MBP group.
Human RCTBenefit across the menopausal transition
A review of MBP trials reported bone mineral density gains in both young adult and perimenopausal women, driven mainly by inhibited bone resorption in the perimenopausal group.
ReviewRelevant to higher bone-turnover life stages
Researchers noted MBP's bone-protective effects are most relevant during life stages with excessive bone resorption, such as the postmenopausal years, based on its combined osteoblast- and osteoclast-modulating actions.
ReviewWell tolerated in a 6-month trial
In a 6-month, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of MBP (40 mg/day) in healthy young women, all subjects completed the study in accordance with the protocol.
Human RCTSame dose studied across three trials
The 40 mg/day dose has been evaluated in three separate double-blind, placebo-controlled human trials - healthy adult women, young women and menopausal women - each monitoring bone-metabolism markers over 6 months.
Human RCTWhy a milk-protein caution applies
As a bovine milk-derived ingredient, MBP falls under the same allergen considerations reviewed for cow's milk proteins generally, which is why milk-allergic individuals are advised against use.
ReviewMBP differs from generic whey protein
A 36-week trial found that whey protein supplementation and higher total protein intake, on their own, did not influence bone quantity in overweight adults - underscoring why the specific MBP fraction, not dairy protein generally, is what has been studied for bone density.
Human RCTEvidence for protein source is mixed overall
A broader review of macronutrients and bone health in older adults concluded that human evidence for animal, vegetable, soy or milk basic proteins on bone outcomes remains inconsistent overall - one reason MBP is tested as its own isolated ingredient rather than assumed from dairy protein in general.
ReviewMilk-sourced protein and bone in an animal model
In an ovariectomized-rat weight-loss model comparing protein sources, a milk-based high-protein diet did not worsen weight-loss-induced bone loss, unlike a beef-based diet in the same study.
Animal studyProtective in a disuse bone-loss model
In mice with hind-limb unloading (a model of disuse bone loss), combining MBP with soy isoflavones cooperatively reduced the femoral bone density loss seen with unloading alone.
Animal studyReversed alveolar bone loss in an animal model
In rats with experimentally induced periodontitis (a model of localized inflammatory bone loss), dietary MBP supplementation increased alveolar bone crest thickness and promoted recovery of bone lost to the disease.
Animal studyA novel ghrelin-linked pathway
Chronic MBP intake increased plasma ghrelin and bone mineral density in rodents; MBP directly stimulated ghrelin release from gastric tissue, suggesting an additional pathway supporting bone formation.
