The Balancing Act: Calcium, Phosphorus, and Your Health

Calcium & phosphorus rely on each other for proper absorption and utilization in the body. To achieve maximum benefits, calcium and phosphorus need to exist within a specific ratio in our diets. The ideal ratio is generally considered to be between 1:1 and 2:1 (calcium to phosphorus). When this balance is maintained, our bodies can effectively absorb and utilize both minerals.
