Six
Tablets Supply:
PolyCalPlex and PolyMagPlex are proprietary blends of high quality Calcium and Magnesium sources including Calcium and Magnesium citrates, chelates, aspartates, gluconates, ascorbates, glycerophosphates and lactates. Contains Betaine HCl 20 mg and L-Glutamic Acid HCl 20 mg to assure adequate acidity to enhance Calcium absorption. Contains Alfalfa 40 mg, Kelp 20 mg and Dulce 20 mg as natural plant sources of numerous trace elements synergistic with Calcium and Magnesium. Formulated in a proprietary PhytoZymebase of special herbs , synergistic phytonutrient co-factors and plant enzymes for bioavailability. |
CalMag Plus contains pH balanced Calcium and Magnesium from multiple sources. This unique formula offers several advantages to other Calcium/Magnesium supplements. More recent understanding of the utilization of these two important minerals demonstrates that a ratio of one-to-one is best. The blend of different sources in PolyCalPlex and PolyMagPlex, along with tablet acidification, assures the most reliable absorption. The trace element, Boron, helps maintain Calcium levels in the body once it is absorbed. Vitamin D-3 is essential for Calcium utilization. The specific herbs contained in CalMag Plus supply high quality trace elements to aid in Calcium and Magnesium utilization as well. One thousand milligrams of Calcium is needed by the body every day and more is needed during growth and development, during pregnancy and in later years to protect against bone degeneration. It is now understood that Magnesium levels are equally important. Both Calcium and Magnesium levels are critical in the muscles, heart and bones. Both are helpful for leg cramps and allergies. Calcium and Magnesium are also natural calmatives. Supplementing them in equal amounts provides the best supplement possible. |
ESSENTIAL MINERALS
Calcium and Magnesium are essential minerals for the building of bones and teeth and are extremely critical for the proper functioning of both skeletal muscles and the heart. Because they are difficult to absorb, most people should supplement with them.CalMag Plus is a superior product because it focuses on the absorption problem in two ways; (1) it includes different sources of high quality, organic Calcium and Magnesium to meet each individual's needs, and (2) it assures an acidic media in which Calcium and Magnesium are best absorbed. It includes a team of vitamins and trace elements necessary to properly utilize Calcium and Magnesium. Boron helps maintain Calcium levels in the body once it is absorbed.
Suggested Use:
Three tablets twice a day with meals provide 1,000 mg each of both Calcium and Magnesium.Contains no preservatives, sugar, starch, salt, wheat, yeast, corn, milk, soy derivatives, artificial flavoring or coloring agents.
CALCIUM AND MAGNESIUM
We probably need more Calcium and Magnesium than any other vitamin or mineral because they are the primary building blocks of bones, teeth and muscles. Many foods contain these valuable minerals, especially calcium, so many people supplement their diets with calcium...yet Calcium remains high on the list of minerals in which people are deficient.It is not how much Calcium and Magnesium you obtain from the foods you eat and supplements you take, but rather how much your body ABSORBS and UTILIZES. Very simply, Calcium is difficult to absorb for most people.
Life Plus understands that the name of the game is absorption and utilization; therefore, CalMag Plus is more than just a straight Calcium supplement. It includes an abundant amount of Magnesium and other specific nutrients your body needs in order to absorb and utilize both Calcium and Magnesium to its fullest potential. In taking CalMag Plus, you have a complete team working for you.
THE CALMAG PLUS TEAM
Your body needs adequate amounts of Magnesium in order to absorb calcium and it also needs adequate amounts of Calcium to utilize Magnesium. Vitamin D-3 is also included because it is necessary for both the absorption and utilization of Calcium, and Calcium is needed to utilize Vitamin D-3. Any Calcium supplement that does not contain Calcium, Magnesium and Vitamin D is simply not of much value in terms of absorption and utilization in the body.Betaine HCl, glutaminic acid and the citrate form of Calcium ensure that CalMag Plus is pH balanced. Proper pH (acid base balance) in the digestive tract is very important for proper Calcium absorption.
Alfalfa, Kelp and Dulce are also included as good sources of Calcium and Magnesium and all three are rich sources of trace minerals helpful for Calcium and Magnesium utilization. Boron is added to help maintain Calcium levels in the body once it is absorbed. Studies have shown that less Calcium is excreted in the urine if adequate levels of Boron are present.
TYPES OF CALCIUM & MAGNESIUM
Many Calcium supplements contain only inexpensive, inorganic forms of Calcium, such as oxides or carbonates. In general, most of these products are not worthwhile because most of the Calcium is not absorbed. Different individuals seem to be able to absorb different forms of Calcium and Magnesium. This is why Life Plus CALMAG PLUS contains numerous sources of Calcium and Magnesium including citrates, chelates, aspartates, gluconates, ascorbates, glycerophosphates and lactates.WHY TAKE CALMAG PLUS
Individuals who are allergic to dairy products (a major source of Calcium in the American diet) can easily become deficient in Calcium and need CALMAG PLUS to make up for the loss of this source of Calcium.During pregnancy, mothers need a great deal of Calcium and Magnesium to ensure the proper development of the fetal bones, muscles and teeth and to ensure that the mother's own mineral stores are not depleted. For the same reason, lactating mothers should continue to supplement their diets with CALMAG PLUS.
Growing children need extra Calcium in their diets to ensure continuing development of muscles, bones and teeth. If they maintain proper levels of Calcium, they will have less tendency toward cavities and broken bones. CALMAG PLUS is the perfect supplement for them, but they may prefer the chewable Life Plus Candy Cal tablet.Anyone who drinks large amounts of soft drinks need extra amounts of CALMAG PLUS, because of the leaching effects of the ortho phosphoric acid. Carbonated, phosophorylated soft drinks are one cause of bone degeneration and the increased incidence of this problem has been shown to correspond to the increased consumption.
Calcium and Magnesium are absolutely necessary for healthy muscles. Inadequate levels can lead to muscle cramping, especially in the legs.
Elderly people find it increasingly difficult to absorb Calcium and in general don't seem to get enough Magnesium. They often develop osteoporosis, a condition where Calcium erodes from the bones causing them to become weak and brittle. Elderly people should supplement their diets with Life Plus CALMAG PLUS.
Calcium and Magnesium are often called "Nature's Tranquilizers" because of their natural calmative effect, not only for muscles but for the nervous system as well.PHYTOZYME BASE
CALMAG PLUS is formulated in the proprietary Life Plus PhytoZyme base, which contains a unique blend of over thirty natural concentrates of numerous valuable phytonutrients from plants.When you take Life Plus products, you have the added benefit of receiving the numerous health supporting phytochemicals and other micronutrients contained in them.
HOW TO TAKE CALMAG PLUS
It is usually recommended that most people take three CALMAG PLUS tablets two times per day, usually with meals. This supplies 1,000 mg each of both Calcium and Magnesium and represents 100% of the RDA for Calcium and 250% for Magnesium. Individual needs will vary. Older individuals and pregnant or lactating women should consider taking more.Footer
