Courtesy of Global Light Network Nobel Prize winners Edwin Neher and Bert Sackman, MD, made a very significant discovery about ion channels within human cells, and for their work, they were awarded a Nobel Prize. Their discovery finally proved ionic channels exist within human cells. They observed that ion channels are tunnel-like passageways from the inside of a cell to the outside. Robert Recker, MD, proved calcium (and magnesium) is absorbed within the body via ionized form. Mag-Cal Ionic is in ionic (ionized) form. This is very important because our bodies easily recognize, utilize and metabolize the ionic form of calcium and magnesium. If your calcium and magnesium are not in this form, your body tries to ionize it in the stomach. This translates that every product on the market (except ionic form calcium and magnesium) must go through metabolizing and digesting processes to get into ionic form via the stomach and digestive system. But wait, metabolizing into ionized form is not all that easy. There are many people who have difficulty digesting anything, let alone calcium, and there are even more people who don't have proper gastric acid levels to digest calcium or magnesium to its fullest extent or a very limited extent at the most. With Mag-Cal Ionic, there are no worries concerning all the problems of changing calcium/magnesium into ionic form within the body. With Mag-Cal Ionic, it has been done for you before you ingest it. Calcium from coral sources has been the big rage. Look at the labels on many calcium products from coral sources. Most contain an ingredient such as Betaine HCL. Why is Betaine contained within those calcium formulas? Acid. Yes, they need more acid in the stomach to make sure the calcium from coral sources is converting toward the ionic phase and becoming more ionic than without Betaine HCL. Why the Betain HCL you ask? The following is from the International Coral Reef Information Network. "Although coral is often mistaken for a rock or plant, it is actually composed of tiny, fragile animals called coral polyps. When we say coral, we are actually referring to these animals and their skeletons they leave behind after they die. Their skeletons are made out of calcium carbonate (also known as limestone) which is hard and eventually becomes rock." Are You Vegetarian? . . . Most vegetarians are not interested in calcium from skeletons. It is questionable as to how much of the actual coral product (calcium carbonate) will convert into ionic form. Calcium from coral sources seems to be another product on the market that may not get absorbed as well as hoped. If you are using calcium for coral sources without Betaine HCL, beware, that could be even worse. The following functions are dependent on ionized intracellular calcium . . . - Muscle excitation and contraction in proper order. Cramping? - Cell to cell communications means calcium acts like a messenger sending signals. Better sense of well being and relaxation? Heart conditions, mental fatigue? - Egg fertilization. Want to get pregnant? - Bone Growth. Hate bone loss and osteoporosis? How about your teeth? - Initiation of DNA synthesis (new DNA). Stay younger? Look younger? - Certain enzyme activities within the body. Better biological functions? - Creates cellular membrane permeability for potassium and calcium? - Many other functions . . . too many to list here. Sometimes Calcium Can Do Harm . . . Did you know that calcium (too much) by itself can cause what is known as cellular necrosis, which is cellular death? Isn't it important to know when enough is enough? Referring to W.G. Robertson once more, it is noted "High concentrations of calcium are toxic to many enzyme functions, formal cellular function decreases and damage to the body can happen." It is important to have a calcium with a gate keeper in its formulation. A gate keeper protects cells from getting too much calcium and going intracellular. Gate keepers are actually gated channels (ion channels), and each has a regulatory mechanism to help regulate calcium going into cells. The natural gate keeper used in Mag-I-Cal Ionic is ionic magnesium. Magnesium in ionic form acts as a natural calcium antagonist (gate keeper), which helps prevent too much calcium from entering cells and causing damage. The pharmaceutical business has known that for many years? Why do you think they make a calcium channel blocker? "We begin life as a jellyfish and end it as coral. We begin life soft, moist and flexible, and we end life hard, dry and rigid. What happened? The soft tissue becomes partially calcified like rock, due to high tissue calcium levels." - The Sea Within, Dr. William D. Snively, Jr., MD, (1960) Rudolph Cartright, MD, Neurosurgeon, from Odessa, TX says "Excess calcium is the road to rapid aging." Degeneration anywhere in the brain means too much calcium." Alzheimers? Homeostasis means: The ability or tendency of an organism or a cell to maintain internal equilibrium by adjusting its physiological process. In practice, calcium homeostasis is achieved by the influx and outflow of calcium from extra-cellular-fluid. Remember the ion channels? Magnesium plays a major role in helping to maintain this balance of homeostasis of calcium and magnesium.
