Most people seem to recommend half calcium to magnesium as I have read it.

Gail ,
1000 each calcium and magnesium is not how I read it.Here's what I saw:
Natures Bounty Coral Calcium-1000 Mg/Puritan Pride-Chelated Calcium
Magnesium Zinc-1000Mg. 


Since the Puritan's Pride lists Calcium first it is probably equal to or
more than the Magnesium. Most supplements have cal/mag at 2/1 so this looked
like a total of 2000 mg calcium to 500 mg magnesium. 

Anyway this looks like 4 to 1 and the old rule was 2 to 1.  Now you see more
recommendations for 1 to 1 or 1 to 2.  I think that the exact amount  and
ratio depends on many variables such as how much dairy you consume, your
vitamin d levels, what foods you regularly take in like green veggies,
whether you take HCL with your foods,  etc.

All that being said, 2000 mg calcium is way too much calcium to be taking, 
especially for someone with hypothyroid/fibromyalgia symptoms.

I have forever heard it the other way around:  take twice the calcium as 
magnesium.  This is the first time I have ever heard it differently.  Faith G

CSAgain calcium/mag ratio/ Pat?

 Connie,

  Magnesium is better for sleeping than calcium.  You
 are taking way more calcium than is recommended.
 This can cause calcifying  of your soft tissues.You
 may need to do transdermal magnesium to get an
 adequate dose as oral magnesium has a laxative
 effect in larger quantities.

Pat,

Connie said she was taking 1000mg each of calcium and
magnesium.  You say this is way too much calcium.  How
much calcium would you suggest along with magnesium?

Thanks,

Gail
