Default Re: The official Cal Mag thread

ok, I'm looking at this liquid form:

http://www.vitacost.com/NSI-Liquid-C...ngredientFacts

which provides 500 mg Cal and 230 mg Mag

To get Allison's recommended dose of 1200/400... well, doubling the serving would give me 1000/460... ?? and then I'd be over on Mag and under on Cal

and also at this pill form:

http://www.rainbowlight.com/Categori...a-649a02ce93c5

and here's one more...

http://www.bluebonnetnutrition.com/m...n_citrate.html

a liquid with 1000/400

which is similar ... 500/250 and I'd have to take 2 (presumably huge) pills , which is not a big problem for me, but I know it is for some.

So... how important is that 3:1 ratio?? Would I need to make a point of getting that extra Calcium supplement?

Also gathered from comments on the other thread that it might be wise to start with a lower dose and gradually ease into the higher amounts, since the Mag can act as a laxative or stool softener--especially if your body is not used to it.
