Cal/Mag 2:1 dietary supplement vegetarian capsulesIt offers calcium and magnesium in equal amounts to one another, with 200 mg of each mineral per a 2 capsule serving.
While the standard ratio for calcium to magnesium is 2:1, magnesium deficiencies have become very common in the US, often caused by stress, alcohol consumption, exercise, excessive sweating, certain medications such as birth control pills, various antibiotics, and common diuretics. Signs and symptoms of magnesium deficiency include fatigue, irritability, becoming easily startled, muscle cramps/twitches, difficulty phasing out background noises, and insomnia.
When in balance, calcium and magnesium play vital roles in many areas of human health. Calcium is crucial for muscle contraction, proper blood clotting, wound healing, the secretion of hormones and enzymes, nerve transmission, the building of strong bones and teeth, and for inhibiting the build-up of lead in the body.
Magnesium, one of the most critical minerals in the human body, is involved in hundreds of enzyme reactions and plays a pivotal role in muscle relaxation, energy production, heart health, maintenance of proper blood pressure, and in helping to prevent the accumulation of aluminum, a toxic metal implicated in many common degenerative neurological disorders.
Great examples of this harmonious duo: calcium is necessary for muscles to contract, while magnesium is needed for muscles to relax; calcium works to stimulate nerves, while magnesium calms the nerves.
Who should consider Cal/Mag 1:1? This product is ideal for people who exhibit signs of a magnesium deficiency (mentioned above) and/or for people whose magnesium levels test low, so that they can help to restore the calcium-magnesium balance.
