Inferior forms of mineral supplements slow and limit absorption, relying on adequate levels of stomach acid to release calcium ions which then enter the body via passive diffusion. The slow uptake means they tend to stay in the intestines longer and can lead to gut distress including diarrhea or constipation. Cal-Mag Complete uses highly-absorbable mineral chelates. This beneficial form includes important amino acids bound to the minerals that ensure optimal absorption.

Calcium is required for heart health, muscle function, nerve transmission, intracellular signaling, and hormonal synthesis. 99% of the body's calcium is stored in bones and teeth, leaving 1% for other functions. Calcium requires cofactor phosphorous to maintain bone health. Phosphorous is added to this mineral formulation to ensure bone integrity. Magnesium is a cofactor in over 300 enzyme systems that regulate diverse biochemical reactions in the body, including protein synthesis, muscle and nerve function, blood glucose control, and blood pressure support. Magnesium also plays a role in the active transport of calcium and potassium ions across cell membranes, a process that is important to nerve impulse conduction, muscle contraction, and normal heart rhythm.
