Should I take magnesium with food?
Yes. It is much better tolerated that way, and taking it on an empty stomach is the usual cause of complaint.
Why is calcium sold with vitamin D?
Vitamin D is involved in absorbing calcium, so the two are commonly combined.
Why are potassium tablets such a low amount?
UK rules limit how much potassium a supplement may contain. They are a modest top-up rather than a substantial source; food provides most of it.
Is the larger pot better value?
Usually, but work it out per tablet rather than comparing the price on the front – it is not always the case.
