My rerference says the calcium/phosphorous ratio should range between 1.3 to 6.1- IOW 1.3 to 6.1 times more calcium

This is one reason taking supplements is not without risk. You can
unbalance and do more damage than you know.

Phosphorous must be in a 1.2-2:1 ratio of Calcium : Phosphorous or you
can produce metabolic bone disease. It is well known in horses and in
herpetoculture enthusiasts that messing with the mineral balance in the
diet should not be undertaken lightly, particulary when taking high
doses over a long period of time.

To keep this on topic, I just read that we used to get 130 mcg of Silver
in our diets. Have also seen figures as high as 430 mcg. The author of
the booklet on CS speculated that soil depletion has led to a Silver
deficiency and perhaps is an explanation for the increase in infectious
disease rates.
