Does taken calcium and magnesium tablets together do they cancell each other out?

Hi ive been told when taking calcium tablets and magnesium tablets they cancell each other out

Calcium and magnesium are both alkaline earth metals that interact and a large excess of one can lead to a deficiency of the other due to preferential absorption of the one present in a large excess.

Taking calcium and magnesium together is ideal and is much better than taking one of them only or taking them separately. Some supplements actually contain both calcium and magnesium as it is beneficial to take them both together.

Instead of cancelling each other out they actually do the opposite.

It is better to take them together. I have one tablet that is a calcium/magnesium combination that works great.

They do not cancel each other out. Why do you think the are manufactured together? They are two different properties needed by your body. Taking them together is merely a convenience.
