Ingredients explained
Calcium
Calcium serves as a structural mineral in bones and teeth and participates in muscle contraction and nerve signaling.
Caution: Take with food to support absorption, and separate from high-iron supplements by a few hours because calcium may reduce iron uptake.
Magnesium
Magnesium acts as a cofactor for hundreds of enzymes involved in energy metabolism and supports normal muscle and nerve function.
Caution: High doses may cause loose stools; take with food and separate from certain medications as magnesium can affect absorption.
Zinc
Zinc supports protein and DNA synthesis and is involved in normal immune cell function and antioxidant defenses.
Caution: Use as directed since higher intakes may upset the stomach and can interfere with copper status over time.
Vitamin D (ergocalciferol)
Vitamin D helps regulate calcium and phosphorus absorption to support healthy bone mineralization.
Caution: Take with a meal containing some fat to aid absorption; avoid combining with additional high-dose vitamin D unless advised.
Phosphorus
Phosphorus combines with calcium to form hydroxyapatite in bone and supports energy metabolism as part of ATP.
Caution: Excess phosphorus from multiple sources may disrupt mineral balance, especially if dietary intake is already high.
How they work together
Calcium and phosphorus provide key building blocks for bone structure, while vitamin D helps the body absorb and utilize these minerals. Magnesium supports bone matrix and contributes to muscle and nerve function. Zinc participates in normal bone remodeling and overall mineral metabolism.
Safety and tips
Label Warning: If you are pregnant, nursing, taking medication, have a medical condition, or planning surgery, consult a doctor before use. Stop use and consult a doctor if any adverse reactions occur. Do not exceed the recommended dose.
Who should be cautious: People taking thyroid medications or certain antibiotics may need to separate calcium and magnesium from these medications. Those with kidney concerns or a history of kidney stones may need guidance due to higher mineral content. People on anticoagulants may consider vitamin K intake from other sources. If using medications that may interact with calcium or magnesium, discuss with a healthcare provider before use.
Storage: Store in a dry place between 59°-86° F.
