It is well established that many people's diets are deficient in two essential bone-making nutrients, calcium and magnesium and that low calcium intakes can contribute to osteoporosis. The Department of Health recommends that women intake up to 1200mg of calcium daily, which is hard to achieve through diet alone, especially if the diet contains little dairy produce.
Calcium has an essential role as a mineralising agent for our bones and teeth and assists in maintaining healthy bones and a healthy nervous system. Magnesium, which is increasingly absent from our food, is also necessary for a healthy nervous system and a sufficient amount is required to maintain nerve health. Magnesium is known to help in the deposition of calcium into the bones rather than into the soft tissues in our body, and a dietary intake in the ratio of 2:1, calcium: magnesium, is often recommended. Both calcium and magnesium are presented together because too much calcium can lead to low levels of magnesium, Lamberts Osteoguard formulation supplies adequate amounts of both Calcium and
Magnesium in one tablet.
