The 1500 mg of calcium and the 320 mg of magnesium from Coral Calcium show up in the blood in less than 10 minutes due to the presence of microbes that assist the absorption.
For example, calcium requires magnesium for its absorption and assimilation.
Albert Graham,
Backyard Pool Drainer

Absorption of calcium is dependent upon the need for calcium by the body, source of calcium, amount of calcium ingested and the presence of Vitamin D.
High calcium diets are effective at reducing the absorption of phosphorus from the GI tract.
Calcium competes with zinc, manganese, magnesium, copper and iron for absorption in the intestine, and a high intake of one can reduce the absorption of the others.
Adam Findley,

Calcium and magnesium deficiencies and needs addressed with the MagCal-Ionic supplement, a high potency form of 100% available ionic calcium and magnesium for fast and effective absorption and utilization by the body.
It is important to remember that proper calcium absorption absolutely requires an adequate level of vitamin D, through diet or by supplement.
Most other forms of calcium and magnesium must first be processed by the stomach system into the Ionic form before the body can begin to utilize these elements and as a result much passes directly into the stool meaning the absorption rate is low.
Billie Kirgan,
Machinist

Intestinal absorption, renal metabolism, bone accretion and resorption of magnesium are very similar to those of calcium.
Arthur Dawkins,
Astro-physicist

It differs greatly from the average Calcium Magnesium supplements so common today, in that it provides the system with all of the nutrients so essential for maximum absorption of minerals required for optimal bone and bone matrix health.
These trace minerals are important not only to facilitate the absorption of calcium (as in magnesium) but they are also needed by the body as well for the millions of biochemical reactions that are taking place in the body every day.
Calcium absorption is improved by adequate amounts of protein, magnesium, phosphorous, and vitamin D.
