Calcium Magnesium Malate Details Current calcium intake falls to only one-fourth to one-third of what anthropologists believe humans consumed 10,000 years ago. Therefore, it’s highly likely that we do not consume the necessary amount of dietary calcium to maintain healthy bone density. Supplementation with the well-absorbed calcium malate found in Thorne’s Calcium-Magnesium Malate promotes good bone density. In addition to calcium, magnesium, the other chief ingredient in Calcium-Magnesium Malate, plays a vital role in maintaining normal bone density. Moreover, magnesium helps maintain normal cardiac rhythmicity, supports healthy pulmonary function, and regulates blood glucose levels. Notably, magnesium and calcium work synergistically in the body, as both are necessary to maintain normal blood pressure, ensure proper muscle contraction, and provide support for dysmenorrhea. Calcium-Magnesium Malate offers a balanced 1:1 ratio of calcium and magnesium in the well-absorbed malate form. Additionally, magnesium exists in all cells of the body and participates in over 600 enzymatic processes. Body functions requiring magnesium include nerve conduction, methyl-group transfer, conversion of pyridoxine to its active form (pyridoxal 5′-phosphate), energy production, and muscle relaxation. A depletion of magnesium can impair mineral homeostasis by reducing the activation of vitamin D. While experts debate the appropriate intake ratio of calcium to magnesium, some scientific literature supports a 2:1 ratio (twice as much calcium as magnesium), while others advocate for a 1:1 ratio. Thorne’s Calcium-Magnesium Malate effectively provides this balanced 1:1 ratio. Warnings Do not use if security seal inside the cap is broken. Store tightly sealed in a cool, dry place.
