Cal Maxx

• A Dietary Supplement to Support Proper Bone Function*

• WHY DO WE NEED CALCIUM?
Calcium is the most abundant mineral in our bodies, making up 2%
of our total body weight. It is necessary for most bodily
functions, and it is estimated that 80% of all American women are
calcium deficient. Calcium is involved in the transmission of nerve
impulses, muscle contraction (including the heart muscle), blood
clotting, reducing cholesterol, enhancing the immune system,
maintaining strong bones and teeth and proper sleep.*

• FACTORS THAT LEAD TO CALCIUM DEFICIENCY
The most common factors leading to calcium deficiency are poor
eating habits, stress and lack of exercise. Birth control pills draw on
the body’s calcium levels and large intakes of dietary fat, oxalic acid
(present in chocolate) and phytic acid (found in wheat bran) can
prevent the absorption of calcium in the body.*
Excessive intake of phosphorus, which is present in most soft drinks
and junk food, can also cause calcium loss from bones. The body
needs phosphorus in a one-to-one ratio with calcium; however,
too much phosphorus in the diet can inhibit calcium absorption.*
Emotional stress and physical stress due to injury, pregnancy or
a strict diet can also lead to calcium loss.* Stress may also
increase cortisone production in the body which can interfere with
calcium absorption.*

Women are more prone to calcium deficiencies than men.
Women lose bone very rapidly in the first few years after
menopause.* Until menopause, estrogen seems to control the
function of the parathyroid gland that monitors the release of
calcium from the bones. After menopause, this monitoring system
can be adversely affected and calcium may be lost.*

Some individuals are at higher risk for calcium loss than others.*
Risk factors include small bones, short stature, fair complexion,
slender body type, high alcohol consumption, smoking, lack of
exercise and insufficient dietary calcium.*

• SYMPTOMS OF CALCIUM DEFICIENCY
Calcium deficiency symptoms include irritability and nervousness,
muscle cramping and fatigue, osteoporosis, periodontal
disease, insomnia, high blood pressure, menstrual problems,
confusion, throat spasms, and twitching and jerking of the major or
minor muscles.*

• RECOMMENDED DAILY ALLOWANCE (RDA) FOR CALCIUM AND
FOODS THAT ARE BEST SOURCES
The RDA for calcium for adults is from 800 to 1,200 mg. However,
most nutritionists recommend 1,000 to 1,500 mg daily for women,
long before the start of menopause to prevent calcium deficiency
which may lead to osteoporosis.*

Calcium-rich food sources include milk and milk products like
cheese and yogurt, plus dark green leafy vegetables, almonds,
walnuts, sunflower seeds, egg yolks, salmon and sardines.

• FACTORS INVOLVED IN THE METABOLISM AND ABSORPTION OF
CALCIUM
Utilization of calcium depends particularly on correct phosphorus
and magnesium levels. In general, we should have a two-toone
ratio of calcium to magnesium.* A deficiency of magnesium
decreases calcium as well as potassium levels leading to enzyme
problems that can interfere with calcium metabolism.*
Calcium and magnesium work synergistically to benefit the health
of the cardiovascular system.* Calcium also works together
with phosphorus, and both are involved in the health of the bones
and teeth.* Both magnesium and phosphorus facilitate calcium
absorption in the body.* Vitamins A and C also assist in the
metabolism of calcium, and Vitamin D is required for its absorption.*

• SUPPLEMENTING WITH CALCIUM
One of the best ways to receive sufficient calcium levels is through
supplementation.* Calcium supplementation in the range of 1,000 mg
daily supports regeneration of bone and maintenance of blood
pressure within normal range.*
