Calcium & Magnesium 2:1: Strong bones, relaxed muscles & nervous balance – mineral support for energy, hydration & recovery

Calcium & Magnesium 2:1, NOW Foods is a premium mineral complex designed to deliver, in single formula, two essential nutrients in classic ratio for supporting body structure and function. Each serving provides Calcium (elemental) 1,000 mg (77% DV) from calcium carbonate, citrate and ascorbate complex (2,775 mg) and Magnesium (elemental) 500 mg (119% DV) from magnesium oxide, citrate and ascorbate complex (928 mg). Combination of mineral forms ensures optimal balance between high elemental content and solubility, supporting both bones and teeth, as well as muscle, nervous function and electrolyte balance. NOW Foods prioritizes purity, traceability and consistency, so each tablet delivers exactly what label promises.

Detailed Benefits of Calcium & Magnesium in 2:1 Ratio

• Supporting bone and teeth health

Calcium represents main structural mineral of skeleton, while magnesium contributes to bone metabolism and maintaining mineral density. With advancing age or during periods of increased demands, adequate intake becomes priority.
• Common challenges:
• Insufficient mineral intake from diet
• Growth periods, effort or sedentary lifestyle
• Need for daily structural support

Through 2:1 ratio and combined forms, you get:
✅ Support for normal mineralization of bones and teeth
✅ Contribution to density maintenance and resistance
✅ Partnership with vitamin D3 and K2 in bone health routines

• Muscle function: contraction & relaxation in balance

Calcium participates in muscle contraction initiation, while magnesium supports fiber relaxation. Good ratio between these minerals means fluid movement and post-effort comfort.
• Signs of imbalance:
• Muscle tension, "knot" sensation
• Occasional cramps, especially at night or after effort
• Slow recovery after demanding training

Key benefits of complex:
✅ Efficient contraction and harmonized muscle relaxation
✅ Support for discomfort reduction after effort
✅ Support in daily recovery and mobility maintenance

• Nervous system, focus & stress response

Magnesium is cofactor in neurotransmitter synthesis and supports balanced nerve transmission, while calcium participates in cellular signaling.
• Modern challenges:
• Intense office days, uneven sleep
• Mental over-demand, multitasking
• Need for calm and clarity

With this mineral complex:
✅ Support normal nervous system function
✅ Contribute to fatigue reduction and psychological comfort
✅ Support concentration and resilience in busy periods

• Cellular energy and daily performance

ATP – cell's "energy currency" – is functionally active in its magnesium-bound form (Mg-ATP). Calcium modulates intracellular signaling and stimulus response.
• What can limit energy:
• Insufficient magnesium intake
• Suboptimal hydration
• Increased demands at work or training

With 500 mg magnesium + 1,000 mg calcium:
✅ Support efficient energy production in tissues
✅ Contribute to tone and vitality throughout day
✅ Favor endurance and activity rhythm maintenance

• Electrolyte balance and functional hydration

Calcium and magnesium work alongside sodium and potassium to maintain osmolarity and fluid volume.
• When it matters most:
• Physical activity, increased sweating
• Hot seasons or spaces with intense air conditioning
• Demanding daily routines

Targeted effects:
✅ Support for electrolyte balance
✅ Comfort in daily hydration
✅ Contribution to osmotic pressure maintenance within physiological limits

• Metabolism, enzymes and protein synthesis

Magnesium is involved as cofactor in hundreds of enzymatic reactions, while calcium has role in signaling cascades.
• Metabolic areas of interest:
• Protein synthesis and carbohydrate utilization
• Acid-base balance
• Nutritional transformation efficiency

With NOW Foods formula:
✅ Contribute to normal energy metabolism
✅ Support protein synthesis and enzymatic processes
✅ Maintain balanced metabolism in daily routine

• Cardiac rhythm and vascular comfort

Calcium channels and magnesium's role in vascular tone are important for normal heart function.
• What you aim for:
• Adequate response to effort
• Vascular comfort in daily life
• Balance between contraction and relaxation at smooth muscle level

Benefits from complex:
✅ Supporting normal cardiac function
✅ Vascular comfort and circulatory well-being
✅ Support for adaptation to daily rhythm changes

• Complementary mineral forms for absorption and tolerance

Combination of carbonate, citrate and ascorbate for calcium and oxide, citrate and ascorbate for magnesium balances advantages of each form.
• What each brings:
• Carbonate and oxide → high mineral content
• Citrates → better solubility and digestive tolerance
• Ascorbates → mineral salt of ascorbic acid, with good bioavailability

Result:
✅ Efficient absorption, good tolerance for daily use
✅ Predictable dosing, suitable for routine
✅ Versatility for diverse diet types

• Support for athletes and active people

Contraction-relaxation, depot replenishment and post-effort comfort are directly dependent on calcium and magnesium.
✅ Reducing tension sensation after training
✅ Support for coordination and performance consistency
✅ Excellent complement in recovery plans

• Who is it suitable for

Product addresses those who want:
✅ Strong bones and density maintenance
✅ Relaxed muscles, mobility and easier recovery
✅ Clarity and calm in demanding periods
✅ Electrolyte balance and daily energy

• Intelligent synergies in your routine

Combine formula with:
✅ Vitamin D3 – increases calcium utilization
✅ Vitamin K2 (MK-7) – directs calcium to bones
✅ Zinc – bone matrix and immunity
✅ Collagen – structure for bone and cartilage
✅ Omega-3 – joint comfort and systemic balance

Calcium & Magnesium 2:1, NOW Foods brings together two fundamental minerals in balanced formula, easy to integrate into your habits. Optimal ratio, form mix for absorption and tolerance, and high quality standards make this complex solid foundation for bone health, muscle function, nervous balance and daily energy.
