Suggested Use
This product features a one-to-one ratio of calcium and magnesium and D3 for optimum calcium utilization. Potassium, zinc and manganese are added for enhanced absorption. The minerals are delivered in citrate form for best bioavailability. Contains no artificial colours, preservatives or sweeteners and is dairy, gluten and soy free.
Studies show that mineral citrates and malates have superior absorption, especially when taken on an empty stomach. Each tablet has calcium and magnesium in a one-to-one ratio that many health care practitioners now recommend.
Calcium is required for strong bones, teeth, and cardiac function. Calcium not only builds strong bones and teeth but maintains bone density and strength. It helps to regulate heartbeat, blood clotting, and muscle contraction. As well as protecting the body from stress, magnesium works with calcium to provide help to these same body systems and participates in more than 50 different biochemical reactions. That's why magnesium is so important to bone formation, nerve and muscle transmission, and energy production.
The other minerals, including manganese, potassium and zinc, are also in the citrate form for better absorption and utilization by the cells, and they provide a valuable contribution to bone strength. Vitamin D is included because it acts as a hormone that allows the body to absorb and properly use calcium.
Does not contain any artificial preservatives, colour, sweeteners, dairy, gluten, starch or yeast.
