Calcium is necessary for the formation of bones and teeth, blood clotting, and normal muscle and nerve activity. Magnesium is necessary for normal functioning of muscle and nervous tissue and also in the formation of bones and teeth. Calcium must be accompanied by magnesium to be properly absorbed and utilized. If inadequate magnesium is present, the calcium may not be used in building bone density, and may instead contribute to calcium deposits and calcium stones. For this reason, the addition of magnesium to a calcium formula is vital.

Supports Strong, Healthy Teeth*
How It Works:
Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body, and 99% of it is stored in the bones and teeth, where it helps to provide structural support.* During childhood and adolescence, calcium helps to build strong, dense bones, and later in life, calcium helps to maintain bone health.* But calcium doesn’t work alone- your body needs vitamin D to help absorb the calcium you consume.* Adequate calcium and vitamin D intake as part of a healthful diet, along with physical activity, may reduce the risk of osteoporosis in later life. Magnesium also contributes to strong bones, and supplementation with this important mineral can help support calcium metabolism.*
