Benefits of drinking Cal-Mag:
Calcium and magnesium are both essential minerals that are important for various functions in the human body. Here are some of the benefits of each mineral:
Benefits of Calcium:
- Strong bones and teeth: Calcium is essential for the development and maintenance of healthy bones and teeth.
- Muscle function: Calcium plays a role in muscle contraction and relaxation, including the heartbeat.
- Nerve function: Calcium is involved in nerve function, including the transmission of nerve impulses.
- Blood clotting: Calcium is necessary for blood clotting, which is important for wound healing.
- Lower blood pressure: Calcium can help lower blood pressure, which may reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease.
Benefits of Magnesium:
- Muscle function: Magnesium is involved in muscle relaxation and contraction, including the heartbeat.
- Bone health: Magnesium is important for bone health, as it helps with the absorption and metabolism of calcium.
- Energy production: Magnesium is involved in energy production, as it is required for the production of ATP (adenosine triphosphate), which is the body's primary source of energy.
- Nerve function: Magnesium is involved in nerve function, including the transmission of nerve impulses.
- Reduced anxiety: Magnesium can help reduce anxiety, as it is involved in the regulation of the neurotransmitter GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid), which is associated with feelings of calm and relaxation.
Both calcium and magnesium are important for maintaining good health, and they work together in many of the body's functions. It is recommended that adults get 1000-1200mg of calcium per day, and 320-420mg of magnesium per day, through a balanced diet and/or supplements, if necessary.
