  The 7 Basic Supplements for Good Health #2
 

You guessed it, didn’t you? This mineral combination ideally should be part of your Vitamin & Mineral Complex (which is our #1 choice) because it’s that important. But realistically, it can’t be. Not if you’re taking a one-a-day formula. That’s because the Recommended Daily Intake (RDI) of calcium is 1000 mg and the RDI of magnesium is 400 mg. Do you know how big your multiple V&M would be if it included 100% of the RDI for both minerals in absorbable forms? About as big as a Godiva milk chocolate truffle, only horrible tasting and impossible to swallow. A few vitamin & mineral complexes actually do provide both calcium and magnesium in the desired potencies, though a serving is 4 to 6 pills, and the less bioavailable but denser forms of these minerals are used.

From childhood through old age, calcium and magnesium contribute heavily to your health in so many ways that you want to make sure you’re getting enough—starting now! There isn’t one part of your body that doesn’t require calcium & magnesium since they’re both involved in several intercellular functions that we all just take for granted. (Your body puts them to very good use!) Here are but a few highlights of how calcium & magnesium benefit you:

  • Noticeably stable and calm moods for all ages—seriously, give it a try!
  • Strong bones and teeth for a lifetime.
  • Healthy blood pressure. We overlook this one, but the mineral combo is a big factor.
  • Muscles that work for you, not against you. When my eye starts twitching, I know I need more calcium & magnesium.
  • Deep, uninterrupted sleep—zzz!

What to Get. OK. So your mind is convinced of its necessity, but the thought of choosing a calcium and magnesium supplement can make even the most resolute person procrastinate indefinitely. That’s why we designed a special section on our website to help you with your selection, and we invite you to visit it now. Our pick for a Calcium & Magnesium supplement due to its 2:1 ratio of calcium to magnesium, the use of calcium citrate in the formula, and its attractive price is SW180 Swanson Premium Brand Calcium & Magnesium. Click here to see all of our Calcium & Magnesium supplements.

You’re currently taking a Vitamin & Mineral Complex, plus a Calcium & Magnesium supplement, and you have no problem handling this regimen. You also notice that you’re feeling pretty good! It’s time to learn about the #3 recommendation on our list of 7 Basic Supplements for Good Health.
