You are not what you eat; you are what you absorb. Even if you take several calcium/magnesium
tablets, if your body does not assimilate them, you will not reap their benefits.
Unicity markets a unique calcium/magnesium powdered drink which is easily blended with liquid
and quickly absorbed by the body. This is the newest technology, the leading edge of nutritional
research and development. It is a scientific fact that the amount of mineral absorbed is more
important than the quantity consumed. A mineral that is not absorbed cannot get into the bones to
strengthen them. So absorption is an important way of measuring the benefits of calcium and
magnesium.
All calcium and magnesium is not absorbed at the same rate. For example:
Facts:
Calcium is transported through the body using a series of transport proteins called 'calcium binding
proteins'. Among these are: parvalbumin, calmodulin, oncomodulin and more. These compounds
pick up calcium in areas of high calcium concentration. They tend to release the calcium in the
presence of high magnesium concentration. This is because both the calcium and the magnesium
share the same electronic charge (+2). This mechanism efficiently delivers calcium to be deposited
into the bone, provided that there is sufficient magnesium for the subsequent release of the calcium
atoms. This is why calcium and magnesium are found to be much more effective when dosed
together as a supplement. When the calcium is released, enzymes in the bone cells attract higher
levels of the calcium to help builds stronger bones. Over time, this will increase bone density.
