Calcium has the the essential role as the mineralising agent for our bones and teeth and not only assists in maintaining healthy bones but a healthy nervous system too. Magnesium, which is increasingly absent from the food we eat, 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 in to the bones rather than in to 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.
