Calcium-Magnesium Malate Details
Thorne's Calcium-Magnesium Malate is a convenient way to support bone and muscle health.* The easy-to-consume calcium and magnesium supplement is in an optimally absorbed form, so the minerals can get to work right away.
Magnesium and calcium work together in muscle cells – magnesium causes muscle fibers to relax, while calcium causes them to contract.* And because the heart is a muscle these minerals are both important to help maintain normal heart rhythm.*
How much magnesium and calcium do you need? The appropriate intake ratio of calcium to magnesium varies, with some scientific literature supporting a 2:1 ratio (twice as much calcium as magnesium), with other experts recommending a 1:1 ratio. Thorne’s Calcium-Magnesium Malate provides a 1:1 ratio.
Why is calcium important?
- Studies on calcium and bone mass show that daily supplementation of a well-absorbed form of calcium promotes bone mass in adolescents, young adults, older men, and postmenopausal women.*
Why is magnesium important?
- Magnesium is crucial for the body to function properly because it is involved in more than 600 of the body's enzymatic reactions.
- Magnesium is essential to help maintain a healthy heart and blood vessels, for brain, bone, muscle, and lung health, and for healthy levels of blood sugar.*
- Magnesium relaxes smooth and skeletal muscle.*
- Magnesium and enzymes are cofactors needed to produce cellular energy.*

Reviews
Just okay
It's been a good long while since I've taken this supplement, but I don't believe I noticed a significant difference. Capsules are fine. Nothing great or bad to report. I suspect it'll help those who really need it.
wonderful product
Finally found the perfect ratio/combination and it works like magic. Totally recommend this product.
My test
My bone density test is normal. I think it is due to the Thorne calcium supplement that I take.
No side effects
I have not experienced any side effects with this product and take it twice daily. It combats leg cramps and restlessness at night. This works.
Bone & heart health
I feel better and feel more energetic since I started taking this.
It’s great!
I’ve had a good experience with this product
Calcium
The meds I’m taking pull calcium from my bones, specifically my hips, and this pretty much stops that.
Very Little Calcium
I looked at the recommended daily amounts for calcium and I'd need to take like 20 of these pills to get the calcium I need (I'm an active woman in my 50s). Will order something else.
Hi Margaret, thanks so much for your feedback on Thorne's Calcium-Magnesium Malate. Thorne’s Calcium Magnesium Malate is formulated to contain both calcium and magnesium. Because of the size of the molecules, there is only so much of each mineral that can fit into a capsule. The following Thorne products contain higher amounts of calcium and would require fewer capsules to achieve the desired dosage: Calcium (formerly DiCalcium Malate) provides 250 mg of calcium per capsule and Cal-Mag Citrate + Vitamin C (powder) provides 500 mg of calcium per scoop.
Love!
This helps me sleep better and longer.

Works as intended at bedtime.
