Description
NOW Foods Cal-Mag 120 Capsules | Bone Health Support
Calcium helps build and maintain strong bones, heart, muscles, and nerves. Adults over age 50 are at increased risk of osteoporosis. Low bone mass becomes a bigger issue, and getting adequate amounts of calcium can help prevent this deterioration. Most experts suggest 1000-2000mg of Calcium daily for adults over 50.
Magnesium helps with blood pressure, strong bones, and proper heart health. It plays a crucial role in limiting inflammation. Health conditions including diabetes and heart disease are much more common in adults with low levels of magnesium. Severe deficiencies affect people with kidney disease, digestive issues, and those who abuse alcohol.
Calcium and Magnesium are popular minerals often taken together to improve their effectiveness. Both ingredients can be found in food, but supplementation is usually preferable because of how expensive they are.
