Thorne Research Cal-Mag Citrate Effervescent Powder
The effervescent quality of citric acid increases the bioavailability of citrate mineral chelates.* Cal-Mag Citrate Effervescent Powder provides 500 mg calcium and 200 mg magnesium per scoop. This ratio is especially desirable for individuals who need higher amounts of calcium but who, because of magnesium's laxative-like character, cannot tolerate an equal amount of magnesium.* One scoop also provides 500 mg of vitamin C and 500 mg of the amino acid glycine.
The desired amount of powder should be placed in a glass containing a small amount of water and allowed to effervesce. When it has stopped bubbling, the solution can be consumed directly or it can be further mixed with a fruit juice. The resultant calcium and magnesium chelates include citrates, ascorbates, and glycinates.
Benefits:
- Powder effervesces when mixed with water, resulting in formation of optimally absorbed citrate, ascorbate, and glycinate minerals*
- A convenient way to supplement with high amounts of these minerals
- Has the added benefit of vitamin C
Directions: Add 1 heaping (5.4 g) scoop to 8 ounces of water one to two times daily or as recommended by a health-care practitioner.
