200mg- 90 Tablets
Calcium:
Calcium is the most abundant, essential mineral in the human
body. Of the two to three pounds of calcium contained the
average body, 99% is located in the bones and teeth. Calcium
is found in bones and teeth.
Where is it found ?
Most dietary calcium comes from dairy products. Other good
sources include sardines, tinned salmon, green leafy
vegetables, and tofu.
Who is likely to be deficient ?
Most people eat well below the recommended amount of calcium,
which is thought to contribute to the risk of osteoporosis,
particularly in white and Asian women.
Magnesium:
What is its function ?
Magnesium is an essential mineral to the human body. It is
believed to be needed for bone, protein, and fatty acid
formation, making new cells, activating B vitamins, relaxing
muscles, clotting blood, and forming adenosine triphosphate
(ATP; the energy the body runs on). The secretion and action
of insulin also require magnesium.
Where is it found ?
Nuts and grains are good sources of magnesium. Beans, dark
green vegetables, fish and meat also contain significant
amounts.
Who is likely to be deficient ?
Magnesium deficiency is common in people taking
'potassium-depleting' prescription diuretics. Taking too many
laxatives can also lead to deficiency. Alcoholism, diabetes,
and heart problems are other potential causes of deficiency.
