Solgar Calcium Hydroxyapatite Caps vs NOW Foods Calcium Magnesium Citrate

Calcium provides the building blocks that help keep bones and teeth strong and healthy. It also plays a role in proper function of the musculoskeletal and nervous systems. Magnesium helps to regulate calcium transport and stimulates the secretion of calcitonin, a hormone that aids in the influx of calcium into bone. Vitamin D aids in the absorption of calcium, which helps to maintain healthy bones and teeth. Vitamin D also supports a healthy immune system. This formulation provides Calcium, Magnesium and Vitamin D3 in a delicious and easy to absorb liquid form for daily supplementation. †Adequate Calcium and Vitamin D as part of a healthful diet, along with physical activity, may reduce the risk of osteoporosis in later life.
