Facts

Cal/Mag
1:1 provides calcium and magnesium in equal amounts, with
200 mg of each mineral per 2 capsule serving. Although
the most commonly recommended dietary ratio for calcium
to magnesium is 2:1, magnesium depletion has become very
common in the US. Many components of the modern lifestyle
increase magnesium loss, including stress (physical or
emotional), alcohol or coffee consumption, exercise, excessive
sweating, and certain medications such as birth control
pills, various antibiotics, and common diuretics. These
factors cause many individuals to require extra magnesium
to compensate.
Details
Chelated calcium and magnesium in a 1:1 ratio
When
in balance, calcium and magnesium play vital roles in
many areas of human health and work in harmony with each
other. For example, 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.
Additional
functions:
Calcium – necessary for 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
– is one of the most critical minerals in the
human body, and is involved in hundreds of enzyme reactions.
Magnesium plays a pivotal role in energy production, heart
health, the maintenance of proper blood pressure, and
in helping to prevent the accumulation of aluminum -a
toxic metal implicated in many common degenerative neurological
disorders.
Signs
and symptoms of magnesium deficiency include fatigue,
irritability, becoming easily startled, muscle cramps/twitches,
difficulty phasing out background noises, and insomnia.
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.
Albion
chelated minerals will result in the highest levels of
these minerals in the blood and tissues compared to all
other mineral forms on the market!
Why
Albion® Mineral Amino Acid Chelates are superior to
mineral salts:
• Most bioavailable form: not only allows for superior
absorption, but is retained better in body tissue such
as
bone
• Easy to tolerate: chelated calcium is better tolerated
than non-bound calcium salts; does not cause the
milk-alkali syndrome which can lead to stomach upset and
kidney problems
• Do not interfere with the absorption of other minerals
• Exceptionally stable: stays intact throughout the digestive
system
• Phytates (i.e., from fiber) and picolinates will not
interfere with the absorption of Albion chelated minerals
due to these minerals’ stability
