I was experiencing horrible leg cramps every night that left my calf muscles sore the next morning. I would be awakened as many as eight times each night which left me exhausted every day. When I told my boss about my problem, he called Desiree Lotz who came and muscle-tested me for calcium, I showed a defiency.

That afternoon I took a dose of "Cal-Mag with C" on her recommendation and did not experience any cramps in my legs that night!

Needless to say, I will faithfully take "Cal-Mag with C" every day. Thanks Desiree!! Lee Margaret L, Florida

“Well, I took 2 doses yesterday. Anyhow, I hit the bed at 11:15 pm, woke at 6 am and put my attention on my lower legs and feet. I do this automatically every time I awaken in the morning.

Normally, I can feel that the magnesium pills that I took the night before are wearing off and "usually" the right leg/foot is about to have severe muscle tightening/spasms. Some people call it "charley horses". I've learned, the hard way that the severe spasms will start "somewhere within" in the next 30 minutes.

I can ALWAYS feel it when the spasm is approaching…and I'll usually just get up right before the "assault" hits! The 30-minute danger zone.

Well……since I was now testing the CalMag-C, I could "sense" that it was wearing off (same feeling as with the pills)…and I wanted to see just how long it would be before the terrible spasms hit me. Well, I laid there in bed…waiting, waiting, waiting! I waited there in bed for over TWO hours!

There were NO spasms!!! WOW! THAT told me that the CalMag-C had "treated" the muscles to a point where they wouldn't tighten-up/spasm as they did before.

This is a HUGE win for me! I've only been takin'  the stuff for two days and can see that it's already started to do its magic! Outstanding!” WA, S. Carolina

Welcome to our "sleep" page. We hope you find what you're looking for and that we can help you sleep better. We have many testimonials on this topic as we have helped a lot of people to sleep better, ourselves included.

The inability to sleep can be caused by almost any health condition, including things like depression, heartburn, cancer, asthma, arthritis, muscle and back pain.  Other things that can lead to sleep difficulties are the side effects from medications, or drug and alcohol use, as well as a high sugar or refined carbs (starchy food) consumption or insufficient protein before bed.

Besides the B vitamins being essential for good sleep, calcium and magnesium also play a big role in helping you sleep well.  Calcium and magnesium are both essential for your nerves and hormonal system to function normally and the two minerals cannot work without each other.

The harm done by sleeping tablets, to say nothing of the thousands of dollars spent annually on them, could largely be avoided if the calcium and magnesium intake is adequate and they are in a form that can be absorbed by your body. In fact, sleep meds just worsen the problem as they have side effects and one of the side effects is the destruction of nutrients in the body, robbing your body of energy too.

The intense nervousness caused by a lack of magnesium can also make it impossible to fall asleep. Calcium and magnesium also help to prevent or relieve leg cramps and muscle spasms of the toes or feet (Charley horses) which frequently wake some people or prevent them from falling asleep.

These two minerals are part of the nerve messenger system and if they're deficient, the nerves can't relax, which makes it impossible to sleep or have a restful night's sleep. Insomnia is really just an inability to relax.

In addition, potassium cannot be retained by your cells unless magnesium is also present. Without adequate magnesium, the potassium leaves the cells, creating an artificial potassium deficiency in them, making it even harder to fall asleep.

To be used by the body, calcium and magnesium need to be in a 2:1 ratio with some kind of acid to make the correct pH.

The key is absorption into the body so it can actually get these vital nutrients and you can feel the difference.

Instant CalMag-C has been formulated exactly per the body's requirements to absorb and use it.

Anyone who exercises knows that muscles can “feel” the effects of having done so. Whether you’re fit or unfit, your muscles sure let you know that you’ve just exerted some energy.

There are various reasons for this happening. One of them is the burnt fuel – just like when you make a fire. There are residues from the burnt fuel. In your body, this burnt fuel can make it ache and cause you to feel tired because there's nothing there to spark the energy.. More on Overcoming Muscle Pain While Exercising
