BEST CALCIUM SUPPLEMENTSThe Best Calcium Supplements that I have ever found are made by a company called Standard Process. I recommend vitamin supplements made by Standard Process because it provides the safest, most effective, highest quality dietary supplements available today. This company uses only concentrated whole foods and herbs in its product line. Standard Process only sells its supplements directly to doctors. Therefore you are fortunate to be able to obtain it when it becomes available at Amazon. It isn’t always available, so you may have to check back a few times.
Your body needs the magnesium to be able to absorb the calcium. If you take calcium alone, without magnesium, you won’t get the benefit of much of the calcium you are consuming. Your body needs calcium to maintain strong bones and teeth. Calcium is also important for proper heart, nerve, and muscle function.
The recommended daily amount (RDA) of calcium is 1,000 mg per day if you are under 50, and 1,200 mg for over 50. The RDA of magnesium is 350 mg per day. The best calcium/magnesium supplements have 3-5 times more calcium in them than magnesium. The calcium/magnesium supplements that I recommend come in different sized bottles. The two that are available at Amazon now are bottles of either 330 or 800 tablets. The tablets I recommend are made from a non-dairy source and contain the proper balance of calcium and magnesium. They also contain two kinds of calcium which make them more absorbable than if they contained only one kind. It has calcium lactate which doesn’t have the bitter taste that calcium chloride has, and calcium lactate doesn’t have to be taken with food which most calcium does.
