Cal Mag + D is a supplement that offers calcium and magnesium to promote bone health. It contains added vitamin D to enhance calcium absorption and utilization. A study involving 502 adults aged 50 and above who had recently experienced a fracture found that taking 500mg of calcium per day through supplementation would enable most of the participants to meet the recommended daily intake of 1000mg. However, since nearly 90% of skeletal mass is formed by the age of 18, adolescence is a critical phase for developing and maintaining peak bone mineral density. In a recent cohort study of 195 physically active children and teenagers, it was discovered that serum vitamin D levels are a significant factor in overall bone mineral density, and it has an even greater impact on bone mineralization than physical activity. Furthermore, having a higher vitamin D status was linked to lower levels of parathyroid hormone (PTH), which plays a role in bone turnover.
