Who it is for

For adults who want to top up calcium and magnesium with just one tablet a day, for example if their diet includes few dairy products.

What is in one tablet?

One tablet provides 500 mg of calcium (63% NRV) and 250 mg of magnesium (67% NRV). The calcium comes from calcium carbonate and calcium gluconate (14% of the ingredients), the magnesium from magnesium oxide and magnesium gluconate (9.3%).

Why a 2 : 1 ratio?

The nutrient reference values (NRV) for adults are 800 mg of calcium and 375 mg of magnesium per day, which is also roughly a 2 : 1 ratio. The tablet covers about two thirds of the NRV for each mineral; the rest comes from the normal diet.

How to take it

One tablet daily, preferably with a meal. The tablet is coated so that it is easy to swallow despite its size.
