Do you or someone you know suffer from leg cramps that interrupt your sleep at night? Shaklee has a couple of great products that may provide a solution for this problem. Osteomatrix or Sustained Release Vital Mag to the rescue!
Oftentimes, those leg cramps are your body calling for help. Low levels of electrolytes like potassium, magnesium, and calcium can disrupt muscle function and trigger cramps.
heart health, magnesium helps to keep a steady heart rhythm and retain normal blood pressure. It’s also critical for helping maintain normal muscle and nerve function, supporting a healthy immune system, and keeping bones strong. Magnesium has also been linked to reduced symptoms of PMS.
Sustained Release VitalMag® is a proprietary blend of elemental magnesium from three different sources and added potassium for proper nerve transmission and normal muscle contraction, plus boron to aid in bone metabolism and magnesium utilization.*Â
VitalMag:
Promotes cardiovascular health and steady heart rhythm*
Helps retain normal blood pressure and blood sugar*
Helps maintain normal muscle and nerve function*
Strengthens bones*
May provide relief from PMS symptoms, including water retention and breast tenderness.*
It is formulated with a special gel-diffusion delivery system that gently releases nutrients into your body over four to six hours. This helps prevent the gastrointestinal upset that is commonly associated with other magnesium supplements.
Another great choice is Osteomatrix® a calcium rich product in easy to swollow tab form. It is clinically tested for absorption and specially formulated to provide a unique matrix of key nutrients needed to build and maintain strong bones and minimize bone loss*‡, providing:
Nature's most concentrated and easily absorbed sources of elemental calcium (1,300 mg)
Magnesium to help strengthen bones* (500 mg)
Vitamin D to stimulate calcium absorption* (750 IU)
Also includes vitamin K, zinc, copper, and manganese in small, easy-to-swallow coated caplets.
Let me know if you have questions. I am happy to help you consider what might be best for you.
Extra note... When our kids sometimes experienced "growing pains" in adolescence, these products along with leg massages using Joint and Muscle Pain Cream were a wonderful addition to their routine.
