The inclusion of calcium citrate and magnesium citrate are strong points for bioavailability. The presence of magnesium oxide, while offering elemental magnesium, slightly lowers the overall quality score compared to pure chelated or citrate forms.
This supplement delivers 1000mg of calcium from calcium citrate, a form known for its good absorption profile and gentleness on the stomach. It is balanced with 1000mg of magnesium, provided as a blend of magnesium citrate and magnesium oxide. This combination aims to offer both the bioavailability of citrate and the concentration of oxide, covering various aspects of mineral replenishment.
The product is intended for individuals needing significant daily intake of calcium and magnesium to support bone maintenance, muscle function, and nervous system regulation. The 1:1 ratio is often preferred for general cellular health and nerve conduction. This formulation can contribute to overall mineral balance within the body.
