Calcium is one of the most supplemented nutrients in the world since it was recognized for its crucial role in bone mineral density. However, research has come a long way since this discovery, recognizing the importance of other nutrients such as magnesium and vitamin D3 for skeletal health.
Additionally, these nutrients work together to improve health outcomes outside of bone health. Various blends of calcium, magnesium, and vitamin D3 have been shown to be beneficial in clinical trials related to premenstrual cramps, muscle cramps, leg cramps during pregnancy, preeclampsia, and even heartburn.
These three nutrients have unique and interconnected relationships. The actions of calcium and magnesium oppose each other in the musculoskeletal system, calcium necessary for muscle contraction and magnesium necessary for muscle relaxation. Vitamin D3 is necessary for the absorption of calcium from the digestive tract, while magnesium is necessary to activate enzymes related to vitamin D3 metabolism. In fact, people who are loaded with magnesium are much less likely to be deficient in vitamin D3. A deficiency in any of these nutrients can disrupt the overall balance of the body.
Although there is no definitive research to declare the optimal ratio of calcium to magnesium, evidence shows that diets high in calcium can reduce magnesium stores and decrease magnesium absorption. With this in mind, a calcium to magnesium ratio of 2:1 or 3:1 is generally accepted as well balanced in the general population.
Mineral form can have a big impact on absorption rates. Research shows that calcium citrate is significantly better absorbed than calcium carbonate. Citrate forms do not require adequate stomach acid to be optimally absorbed, unlike calcium carbonate which is severely affected by low stomach acid levels.
