Calcium and Magnesium which are two of the most important minerals you need in your body. They balance each other and when taken together can be used as beneficial treatments to various illnesses and to protect your body from aging. Calcium builds and maintains teeth and bones as well as helps to regulate the nutrients in your cellular membranes. It also assists in blood clotting and regulates the rhythm of the heart and helps to maintain proper nerve and muscle function. Although it is one of the most abundant minerals in the body, too many people are lacking in it which can lead to softening of the bones otherwise known as osteoporosis, as well as leg and back crams, muscle spasms, poor growth, rickets, tooth decay and even depression. Magnesium is also a mineral that is essential to over 300 enzymatic reactions that take place within your body. When you are magnesium deficient it can cause calcium depletion since it is critical in the absorption of calcium. When you combine calcium and magnesium through a supplemental form you are giving your body the ability to absorb the calcium which can lead to healthier bones and teeth as well as the prevention of osteoporosis and arthritis which can also be caused by a magnesium deficiency. It is also used for the treatment of menstrual cramps as well as obesity.
