If I take a calcium supplement, do I need a magnesium supplement?

It has long been known that magnesium and calcium work as a team. If you're taking magnesium, then you should also supplement with calcium. If you're taking calcium, you should also supplement with magnesium. There is some research that suggested that taking a lot of calcium may cause magnesium loss. From diet alone, most people may not come close to getting a lot of calcium, because you would have to drink 2 or more glasses of milk and eat several yogurts to even come close to the recommended amount of calcium. However, if you are taking a lot of calcium from dietary supplements, then it would be a good idea to purchase Res-Q Mg, our magnesium supplement. Magnesium improves calcium absorption and utilization.

Which Res-Q products contain calcium?
Calcium is an ingredient in Res-Q’s multivitamin. If you are taking Res-Q Multi as directed, then you are getting calcium. Calcium is also an ingredient in Res-Q Trim System, a system of two supplements for the health of blood sugar and weight management. The relevance of including the extra calcium in Res-Q Trim System is to help our customers achieve a higher intake level of calcium which is associated with body fat reduction.

Res-Q Trim System and Res-Q Multi may be taken with Res-Q Mg. Res-Q Multi contains both calcium and magnesium. However, additional magnesium helps heart health.
