New Beginnings Nutritionals Cal/Mag Citrate (180 caps)

Formerly Calcium/Magnesium Citrate

New Beginnings Nutritionals' Calcium/Magnesium Citrate is an ideal combination formula for individuals who want to take both calcium and magnesium together in citrate form. This is an especially useful supplement for those individuals trying to follow a low-oxalate diet. Oxalates are molecules that are abundant in many plant foods, but when absorbed into the body in high amounts (possibly as a result of a leaky gut). This can lead to oxidative damage, depletion of glutathione, inflammation, and the formation of crystals which have been associated with pain. 

Scientific studies have shown that calcium and magnesium react with oxalate in food to make an insoluble salt that cannot be absorbed. In addition, the citrate portion of the molecule competes with oxalate for absorption from the gastrointestinal tract.
