About these minerals
Calcium is the most plentiful mineral in the body and is stored mostly in the skeleton. Magnesium is involved in hundreds of enzyme processes and works closely with calcium in muscle and nerve activity. A 2:1 ratio, with twice as much calcium as magnesium, is a common balance in mineral supplements and keeps the formula straightforward for everyday use.
Available in 100 tablets and 250 tablets.
