Calcium is the mineral which is most present in our body and is stored mainly in our bones. It is required for strong and healthy bones, and teeth. When we age the absorption of calcium decreases, the reason why we should make sure we have enough calcium in our diet is by eating dairy products such as milk, yoghurt, cheese and butter. Intake of adequate amounts of calcium as part of a healthy diet, along with physical activity, may reduce the risk of health concerns connected with bones and joints in later life. When we are not able to reach adequate levels of calcium through our diet, a supplement might be advised.
Magnesium is considered by experts to be a vital mineral required by every organ within the body and can naturally be found in leafy green vegetables. It can be recommended for everything from promoting restfulness and supporting muscle function, to realising energy from food and relieving tiredness, as well as aiding towards a balanced mind. Calcium Magnesium Citrate is available in a citrate form, which is a highly absorbable form of magnesium compared to the more commonly available form of oxides. Magnesium citrate is therefore ideal for those with digestive issues or those who do not absorb other mineral forms so easily.
