Magnesium, along with phosphorus and calcium, is a major mineral that is important to both medicine and nutrition. Most people do not get enough magnesium from the diet. It is either involved or activates many processes including the activation of amino acids, oxidation of fatty acids, immune function, neural transmission, as well as a cofactor for over 300 enzymes.
Magnesium plays a vital role in the body particularly in the kidneys, heart and muscles. It contributes to the composition of bones and teeth. Some sicknesses can deplete the body of magnesium storage, including diarrhea, vomiting, bowel and stomach diseases, kidney malfunction, diabetes and the use of diuretics. Soda, coffee, or alcohol may also lower the levels of magnesium.
Minerals and vitamins are necessary for proper health. The thousands of reactions that occur in the body require these nutrients. However, minerals are not produced by the body itself. They are taken up from the soil by consumable plants.
Vitamins are assimilated by the body only when an adequate supply of minerals is found. They are required to metabolize fats and proteins, build tissues and bones, and are necessary for nerve reaction and transmission, muscle contraction as well as blood clotting.
Vitabase Colloidal Minerals offer trace minerals and other minerals that your body requires. They are derived from the famous Humic Shale found in Utah. This shale undergoes a process using water in order to release these vital minerals. A filter process is then employed in order to remove harmful levels of heavy metals. This formula has a raspberry flavor and is sweetened with Stevia.
Calcium is a vitally important mineral or growing children. It is required for them as their bodily systems develop. A mineral deficiency can lead to very harmful consequences.
Calcium is probably the most abundant mineral in the body. It is used to build strong teeth and bones and is vitally important for the transmission of nerve impulses, the release of hormones and proper muscle contraction. For adolescents, it is important to get enough calcium for many reasons. One is that it can reduce the risk of osteoporosis in the future. Another reason is that if there is a calcium deficiency in the blood, the body will acquire its calcium from the bones in order to help other cells function properly. This results in weaker bones.
Since kids are often picky eaters and do not include high-calcium foods, like vegetables and milk, it is necessary to supplement with a high-quality Calcium Citrate supplement. The citrate form of calcium is widely known to be the best and most absorbable form. Vitabase Kid’s Calcium offers this vital and important nutrient in a great-tasting, orange-flavored, chewable tablet.
Magnesium Citrate is often considered to be the most easily absorbed form of this vital nutrient. Magnesium has a vital role in over 300 chemical and metabolic reactions in the body. Basically, it is used in almost every major biological process, including the synthesis of proteins and nucleic acids as well as the development of cellular energy.
Maintaining a healthy heart requires focusing on different health methods. One of these methods is making sure you are getting enough magnesium. Some studies have shown that low magnesium is linked to many heart conditions, such as heart disease and high blood pressure.
Because Magnesium Citrate has a mild laxative effect, it is often found in over-the-counter stool softeners.
Vitabase Magnesium Citrate has 200mg/tablet.
Potassium is an abundant mineral in the body and is necessary for the proper functioning of the kidneys. It also is active in smooth, skeletal and cardiac muscle contraction. High blood pressure, heart disease and arthritis may result from a deficiency in potassium.
Processed food and added salt to the diet can result in a deficiency of potassium. Vegetarians, athletes, smokers and women who take oral contraceptives may benefit from supplementing potassium.
It is most typically used for hypokalemia, which shows itself in an abnormal EKG, irregular heartbeat, muscle cramps, low energy and weakness. It may also help treat asthma, inflammatory bowel disease, stroke, high blood pressure and osteoporosis.
