Mineralization Efficiency

Meaning

Mineralization efficiency is a measure of the body’s physiological capacity to effectively deposit and integrate essential minerals, primarily calcium and phosphate, into the organic matrix of bone tissue to form a robust, load-bearing structure. High efficiency indicates a healthy balance between osteoblast activity and adequate mineral availability, leading to optimal bone mineral density and structural strength. This process is highly dependent on vitamin D and parathyroid hormone signaling.
