Ingredients explained
Calcium (elemental)
Calcium serves as a structural mineral in bones and teeth and acts as an intracellular messenger for muscle contraction and nerve signaling.
Caution: Take with food if you experience stomach upset, and separate from high‑dose iron or certain thyroid medications because calcium can reduce their absorption.
Magnesium (elemental)
Magnesium functions as a cofactor for enzymes involved in energy production and supports muscle and nerve relaxation, which is important for bone mineral balance.
Caution: May cause loose stools in some people; consider dividing doses or taking with food to improve tolerance.
How they work together
Calcium provides the building blocks for bone tissue, while magnesium helps regulate calcium transport and utilization in muscles and bones. Together, they address structural needs and the enzymatic processes that influence mineral balance.
Safety and tips
Label Warning: For adults only. Consult a physician if you are pregnant or nursing, taking medication, or have a medical condition. Natural color variation may occur.
Who should be cautious: People taking thyroid medications or certain antibiotics may need to separate calcium and magnesium doses by at least 2 hours due to reduced absorption. Those with kidney concerns or a history of kidney stones should discuss use with a healthcare provider. If combining with medications that may interact with calcium or magnesium, consult a healthcare provider before use.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place after opening.
