Cal/Mag 1:1 by Designs for Health – Bone and Muscle Support Mineral Supplement
Cal/Mag 1:1 capsules by Designs for Health combine calcium and magnesium in equal amounts, using malate forms of both minerals. This 180-capsule vegetarian formula provides 200 mg of each mineral per 2-capsule serving for bone, muscle, and everyday mineral support.
Key Cal/Mag 1:1 Benefits
- Supports bone health with calcium for the mineral framework of bones and magnesium for normal bone structure.
- Helps maintain muscle function by supplying minerals involved in the coordinated contraction and relaxation of muscle tissue.
- Provides nutritional support for nerve function and the mineral signaling that helps cells communicate throughout the body.
- Supports cellular energy metabolism through magnesium-dependent enzymes that help cells produce and use energy.
How Cal/Mag 1:1 Works
Calcium supplies part of the mineral framework that gives bones their strength, while smaller amounts help carry signals in muscles and nerves. Magnesium supports the enzymes and mineral transport systems that keep these processes working normally. Together, these calcium and magnesium supplements complement dietary intake; the 1:1 ratio describes this formula, not a universal daily requirement.
Key Functional Ingredients Include:
- Calcium: Helps maintain strong bones by contributing to their mineral structure. Outside the skeleton, calcium acts as a signal that helps muscle fibers contract and nerves communicate. These roles connect calcium intake with both skeletal support and normal movement throughout the day.
- Magnesium: Helps enzymes produce and use the energy cells need for daily activity. It also helps regulate the movement of calcium and potassium across cell membranes, supporting normal nerve signaling, muscle contraction and relaxation, and heart rhythm. Magnesium contributes to bone structure as well.
Cal/Mag 1:1 Is Formulated For
- People seeking equal amounts of supplemental calcium and magnesium to complement their dietary intake.
- Those choosing a vegetarian capsule formula for bone and normal muscle support under practitioner guidance.
