What the research says about this formula's nutrients
Educational summaries of published research on MCHA/hydroxyapatite, hydrolyzed collagen, vitamin D3, vitamin K2, magnesium, zinc, boron, manganese, silicon and copper individually; not claims about this finished product. CanPrev Healthy Bones MCHA's own claim is the authorized use under NPN 80113653.
Microcrystalline hydroxyapatite raised blood calcium less than standard calcium salts, with comparable bone-turnover effects
A randomized controlled trial in 100 postmenopausal women found that microcrystalline hydroxyapatite (MCH) increased ionized blood calcium less than calcium citrate/carbonate, while producing comparable decreases in bone-resorption and bone-turnover markers over 3 months.
Human RCTOssein-hydroxyapatite complex kept bone density stable over 3 years, versus a decline with calcium carbonate
A 3-year prospective study in 851 perimenopausal women found that ossein-hydroxyapatite complex (a related natural bone-mineral complex) held lumbar spine bone mineral density essentially unchanged, while a calcium-carbonate comparison group lost 3.1%, with fewer gastrointestinal adverse reactions in the hydroxyapatite-complex group.
Human RCTOssein-hydroxyapatite complex produced a greater anabolic bone-marker response than calcium carbonate
A randomized, open-label study in women with senile osteoporosis found that ossein-hydroxyapatite complex increased serum osteocalcin (a bone-formation marker) significantly more than calcium carbonate over 3 years of follow-up.
Human RCTHydrolyzed collagen increased bone density and femur strength in an osteoporosis model
In ovariectomized mice, dietary hydrolyzed collagen (25 g/kg of diet) significantly increased bone mineral density and femur breaking strength versus untreated ovariectomized controls, and increased osteoblast activity in primary bone-cell cultures.
Animal & In Vitro StudyCollagen supplementation combined with jump training preserved femoral-neck bone density in elite cyclists
In an 18-week randomized trial in elite road-race cyclists, short daily bouts of jumping exercise preceded by 15g of hydrolyzed collagen preserved femoral-neck bone mineral density, while a no-treatment control group's femoral-neck density declined.
Human RCTA review found hydrolyzed collagen supports bone mineral density and eases osteoporosis symptoms
A comprehensive review of hydrolyzed collagen's food, cosmetic and health applications reports that a daily dose of around 12g has shown therapeutic effects on osteoporosis and osteoarthritis symptoms and increases mineral density.
ReviewVitamin D3 outperformed D2 at raising blood vitamin D and supporting bone quality
In a rat depletion-repletion study, vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) raised blood 25(OH)D levels more efficiently than vitamin D2, increased intestinal calcium absorption dose-dependently, and produced superior improvements in bone length, width and strength.
Animal StudyCombined calcium and vitamin D supplementation is central to nutrition strategy after hip fracture
A narrative review of nutrition in elderly hip-fracture patients found that meta-analyses and umbrella reviews consistently show combined calcium and vitamin D supplementation reduces hip-fracture risk, with the greatest benefit in older, institutionalized adults.
ReviewVitamin D3 raised blood vitamin D levels more effectively than vitamin D2 in a meta-analysis of RCTs
A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials directly comparing the two forms found vitamin D3 was significantly more efficacious than vitamin D2 at raising serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D concentrations, particularly with bolus dosing.
Meta-analysisBoth low- and high-dose MK-7 protected bone microarchitecture in an osteoporosis model
In rats with osteoporosis induced by estrogen deficiency and glucocorticoid exposure, both a low dose (100 mcg/kg) and a high dose (20 mg/kg) of menaquinone-7 (MK-7) significantly improved trabecular bone microarchitecture and restored bone-remodeling protein expression, with no significant difference between the doses.
Animal StudyHabitual MK-7 intake was linked to higher bone mineral density in a Japanese meta-analysis
A meta-analysis of six studies (2,327 people) found that habitual intake of natto, the richest dietary source of menaquinone-7 (MK-7), was associated with significantly higher serum MK-7, improved osteocalcin carboxylation, and modestly greater bone mineral density, though evidence certainty was rated low to moderate.
Meta-analysisAdding vitamin K2 to a bisphosphonate improved bone strength beyond the bisphosphonate alone
In ovariectomized mice, combining vitamin K2 (menatetrenone) with the bisphosphonate alendronate produced greater increases in bone mineral density and mechanical strength at the femur than alendronate alone.
Animal StudyHigher magnesium intake was associated with greater hip bone density in older adults
A systematic review and meta-analysis of cohort and cross-sectional studies in adults 60 and older found a significant positive association between magnesium intake and hip bone mineral density, though evidence for other skeletal sites and fracture outcomes remains limited.
Meta-analysisMagnesium is a cofactor for over 300 enzymatic reactions, including bone mineralization
A comprehensive review describes magnesium's role as a cofactor in energy metabolism, muscle contraction and calcium-channel function, noting that inadequate magnesium status has been associated with increased risk of osteoporosis and impaired bone mineralization.
ReviewCalcium, magnesium and vitamin D are highlighted together in research on age-related bone and muscle loss
A narrative review of dietary strategies against osteosarcopenia (combined age-related bone and muscle loss) identifies protein, calcium, magnesium and vitamin D intake as key modifiable nutritional factors supporting musculoskeletal integrity in older adults.
ReviewZinc status has been linked to bone mineral density across the lifespan
A narrative review of 16 studies on blood zinc, dietary zinc intake and zinc supplementation found that low zinc intake (under 3 mg/day) may be a risk factor for osteopenia and osteoporosis, and that zinc supplementation studies showed benefits for maintaining bone mineral density.
ReviewZinc stimulates bone-building cells and suppresses bone-resorbing cells
A mechanistic study found that zinc promotes osteoblast differentiation and mineralization while suppressing osteoclast differentiation, acting in part by antagonizing NF-kB activation, a pathway that otherwise favors bone resorption over bone formation.
In Vitro StudyZinc citrate was absorbed as well as zinc gluconate, and better than zinc oxide, in a controlled trial
Using a double-isotope tracer method in healthy adults, researchers found that fractional zinc absorption from zinc citrate (61.3%) was not different from zinc gluconate (60.9%), and both were significantly better absorbed than zinc oxide (49.9%) - a reminder that the chelated/organic form of a mineral can meaningfully affect its absorption.
Human RCTBoron supplementation is being studied for bone health, alongside other systems
A 2026 review of boron in the diet and as a supplement describes emerging evidence that boron may support bone health, mineral and hormonal metabolism, and antioxidant defenses, while noting boron is not yet formally classified as an essential nutrient.
ReviewCombined magnesium and boron outperformed either mineral alone in a menopause model
In ovariectomized rats modeling menopause-associated bone loss, individual supplementation with magnesium or boron improved bone mineral density and bone-turnover markers, and combining both minerals produced better results than either mineral alone.
Animal StudyDietary boron and calcium levels together shaped bone development in a weaning-model study
A multi-omics study in newly weaned mice found that boron supplementation increased tibial weight and volume under both calcium-sufficient and calcium-deficient feeding conditions, and identified calcium-signaling and lipid-metabolism pathways linking dietary boron to bone development.
Animal StudyManganese is among the trace elements reviewed for their role in skeletal health
A clinical review of trace elements and bone health notes that, alongside zinc, copper, fluorine and magnesium, manganese deficiency is associated with slower bone-mass accrual in youth and accelerated bone loss with aging, and recommends monitoring trace-element status alongside bone density.
ReviewSilicon combined with calcium and vitamin D showed a potentially beneficial effect on bone density
A narrative review of eight human studies on dietary silicon and silicon supplementation found that combining orthosilicic acid with calcium and vitamin D showed a potentially beneficial effect on femoral bone mineral density compared with calcium and vitamin D alone.
ReviewLow blood copper was found alongside zinc and magnesium deficits in women with low bone density
A study of postmenopausal women with osteopenia or osteoporosis found significantly lower serum copper and zinc levels than normal reference ranges, alongside low dietary intakes of magnesium, zinc and calcium, and suggested mineral supplementation - including copper - may be warranted in this population.
Human StudyFrequently asked questions
What is CanPrev Healthy Bones MCHA and what does it do?
It's a microcrystalline hydroxyapatite (MCHA) bone complex - 426.67mg of calcium hydroxyapatite plus hydrolyzed collagen, magnesium, vitamin D3, vitamin K2, boron, copper, manganese, silicon and zinc per capsule. It helps in the maintenance and development of bones and teeth, and adequate calcium and vitamin D as part of a healthy diet helps prevent bone loss and osteoporosis.
How do I take it?
Adults take two (2) capsules, one (1) to three (3) times per day with food, or as directed by a qualified health care practitioner. Take a few hours before or after other medications or natural health products.
What is MCHA and how is it different from regular calcium?
MCHA (microcrystalline hydroxyapatite) is calcium hydroxyapatite - the natural calcium-and-phosphorus mineral complex found in bone - rather than an isolated calcium salt like calcium carbonate or calcium citrate.
What sizes are available?
CanPrev Healthy Bones MCHA comes in a 240 vegetable capsule bottle (up to a 120-day supply at the minimum dose) and a 120 vegetable capsule bottle (up to a 60-day supply).
Why does this formula include hydrolyzed collagen?
Hydrolyzed Type I collagen is included alongside the MCHA mineral complex because collagen makes up the organic matrix of bone, complementing the mineral component of the formula.
Is it vegan?
The capsule shell is a vegetable capsule and the formula is free of gluten, dairy and soy - but it contains hydrolyzed collagen, which is animal-derived, so unlike some of CanPrev's other calcium formulas, Healthy Bones MCHA is not vegan.
Who should use caution, or not use it?
Ask a health care practitioner prior to use if you have a liver disorder. Do not use if the safety seal is broken. Take a few hours before or after other medications.
