Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers about this product
What is NOW Magnesium and Calcium?
NOW Magnesium and Calcium is a mineral tablet that supplies more magnesium than calcium. Now Foods made it for people who want the nerve, muscle and bone supporting effects of magnesium, and added zinc and vitamin D-3 for their roles in bone metabolism.
Which forms of magnesium are in NOW Magnesium and Calcium?
Five sources. Now Foods uses magnesium oxide, magnesium glycinate, magnesium taurinate, magnesium citrate and Aquamin TG seaweed-derived minerals. Blending several forms is a feature of this NOW tablet rather than relying on a single magnesium compound.
What is the calcium source in NOW Magnesium and Calcium tablets?
Aquamin TG seaweed-derived minerals and calcium citrate. Now Foods combines these two calcium sources in the tablet, while keeping calcium at a lower level than magnesium, which is the main focus of this particular NOW formula.
Does NOW Magnesium and Calcium contain vitamin D-3 and zinc?
Yes. NOW Magnesium and Calcium includes vitamin D-3 as cholecalciferol and zinc as L-OptiZinc monomethionine. Now Foods says both are included because of their roles in bone metabolism, rounding out the magnesium and calcium base.
