Why Calcium With Magnesium?
Magnesium is important to normal bone structure and from 50% – 60% of the magnesium in the body is present in bones! Similar to calcium, magnesium is another hard-working and under-appreciated mineral! Magnesium plays an essential role in over 300 fundamental cellular reactions! It is necessary for every major biological process, including cellular energy and the synthesis of nucleic acids and proteins. It is also important for the electrical stability of cells, the maintenance of membrane integrity, muscle contraction, nerve conduction, and the regulation of vascular tone, among other things. Phew! A lot of important roles being played! Importantly, magnesium seems to significantly increase bone density after two years of supplementation. Sound a little like its homely mineral friend, calcium, written about above?!
