Calcium and magnesium in the form of citrate become active quickly and are well-tolerable

Essential minerals

Calcium and magnesium belong to the so-called essential minerals, which are necessary to maintain the organism’s functions. They have numerous important properties, which are of great importance for well-functioning processes in the human metabolism.

Calcium and magnesium for the bones

Calcium affects and supports many functions of the body, including the maintenance of normal bones and teeth as well as a normal muscle function. However, new scientific insights show that calcium can do much more than that. A sufficient supply of 1000mg calcium per day (Source: German Association for Nutrition; DGE) decreases the risk for overweight.
The magnesium content of the human body is approx. 25g magnesium; 60% of which are stored in the bones and contribute to their strength. For a good bone health it is recommended to provide the body with both minerals in adequate amounts, preferably into old age.

Magnesium for muscles and nerves

Magnesium is involved in more than 300 processes in the body, including the normal functioning of muscles and the nervous system. Magnesium makes all energy-dependent processes in the body possible.

Magnesium and vitamin D

Another important task of Magnesium is the transformation of vitamin D into its active form (calcitriol) and to make it available for the body, which supports the maintenance of a normal vitamin D level.

Bioavailability

Both calcium citrate and magnesium citrate have a high bioavailability, which means they are resorbed quickly and are well-tolerable.
Because magnesium citrate is a natural component in the body, it becomes active quickly and is well-tolerable.

Unlike carbonates, which neutralise excessive gastric acid, citrates are utilised in the normal metabolism. Because of their different charge, excessive acid combines with citrate and forms citric acid, which is burned in the metabolism and generates energy.
