If you need Calcium and Magnesium Citrate powder, this "NOW" product is an excellent and reasonably priced choice. In addition to the obvious, it contains a reasonable dose of Vitamin D [100 IU per Tsp.] as well as Calcium and Magnesium in equal quantities, which is important for treating certain conditions and for general health. It even tastes O.K., like mild lemon juice [citrate]. We mix 1 teaspoon into citrus juice with powdered Brewer's Yeast and Astragalus twice per day.
This "NOW" Product is one of the few that offers both minerals in Citrate form. Many brands that offer Calcium Citrate sneak in Magnesium Oxide which in therapeutic doses can cause Diarrhea, especially in people with Crohn's or Ulcerative Colitis.
We are very pleased with this product and plan to continue using it. |
