NOW Supplements, Magnesium & Calcium, With Zinc and Vitamin D-3, Nerve and Bone Support*, 100 Tablets

In college I learned that calcium is absorbed best when it is in a 2 to 1 formula of magnesium over calcium instead of the other way around. I went from osteoporosis to steopenia (which is better) until my Endocrinologist stopped prescribing the med, and afterward I continued to do better just using this. She told me to keep doing what I'm doing because I no longer had the need for the meds any longer.

A doctor recommended a magnesium supplement to me, this was inexpensive and fit the bill. My magnesium level went back to normal after taking it for a while.Neutral taste, but a larger tablet, however, every supplement like this seems to be pretty large. It works well and is reasonably priced, so I continue to purchase and use it.

Helped me with my supply during my period and also was such a big help with my postpartum anxiety and lack of sleep.

These pills are pretty large so if you have trouble swallowing they might not be for you. I needed to take calcium but couldn’t handle the constipation that came with it so this reverse dosage formula is perfect. Highly recommend if you have that issue with calcium. I also like that they are made in the USA.

I've used this product for several years and it is a important addition to my supplement regimen.

I love it when I can stay 'regular' as I support my brain and bones at the same time. I take 3 tablets b4 bed every night and I can definitely tell this product is working its magic. I have hypothyroidism and the doctor says the medication (synthroid) I have to take may deplete my bones causing osteoporosis. So I find it crucial to take care of my bones. I've been taking a Calcium, Magnesium, & Vit D supplement, every night, for the past 5 years. I'm a firm believer this routine has contributed to my weight loss, and better thought processing. If you are looking at this product you probably already know it is essential to take magnesium when taking a calcium supplement in order for your body to utilize the calcium properly.

This has been my favorite mineral supplement for nearly 10 years. While the instructions on the bottle say to take 3 per day, I feel this is overkill. I have my magnesium levels checked twice per year by my doc and just 1 per day keeps me in a healthy range for calming the nervous system, and reducing muscle spasms. From what I read, this reverse 2:1 ration of magnesium to calcium is far superior to the alternative, especially to prevent osteoporosis without inducing calcium deposits in joints that can lead to arthritis.
