Since the IP6 molecule is a natural chelating agent, do I need to worry about losing calcium?
No, if anything IP6 Health delivers far more calcium and magnesium than it can remove. Each molecule of IP6 used in the formula contains a combination of 6 calcium and magnesium, which on average have 4 calcium and 2 magnesium. Even at conservative estimates, the supplement would supply 33 times more calcium than it can remove. 5 Q. Why is inositol added to IP6 in the same formula? They are combined because the two molecules are similar and complement each other’s functions in several areas of our physiology. The combination of the two has been proven to provide a more powerful immune response than either molecule alone. In addition the molecule inositol triphosphate or IP3 is known to promote and regulate healthy cell growth and division. By combining inositol with IP6, we can double the potential IP3 content.
