does Magnesium supp require Calcium as well?

[Gianluca Bonetti]

Hi Guys I decided to start supplementing with about 400mg a day of magnesium, on top of my 100mg provided from my multi, will this lower calcium absorption? as dairy I usually eat a slice of Swiss cheese in the am and at night a cup of cottage cheese or a yogurt

Magnesium will not lower your calcium levels. But supplementing with vitamin D3 will make you a super absorber of calcium.

thank you Vince, I do take 4/6000iu of d3 daily so I should be fine, thank you
