 Calcium CarbonateApr 07, 2009
By M. Bell
"Thinker"
I was very disappointed with this product. Despite the name, the contents are not 'nature made' and the type of calcium in this product is calcium carbonate, which is not naturally produced:
INGREDIENTS
Calcium Carbonate, Acacia, Maltodextrin, Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose, Titanium Dioxide (Artificial Color), Magnesium Stearate, Croscarmellose Sodium, Silicon Dioxide, Polyethylene Glycol, Corn Starch, Sodium Citrate, Polysorbate 80, Vitamin D3 (Cholecalciferol), Phylloquinone
For proper absorbtion, you need to take a natural form of calcium with vitamin D. Calcium citrate is the most common, and greatly improves absorbtion over artificial types like calcium carbonate (remember, milligrams in the tablet does NOT mean milligrams absorbed). Calcium carbonate yields ~30% absorbtion, whereas calcium citrate yields ~55% absorbtion and provides the benefits of citric acid without the acid increase (think of it as taking less stomach acid to process). Calcium ascorbate, or an amino acid chelate, would prove even better choices with greater yield absorbtion, but more expensive. Calcium orotate and aspartate yield the highest absorbtion (85-90%).
Pros: Hmmm... none at this price
Cons: Artificial calcium carbonate and low yield absorbtion
Summary: Use natural form of calcium, citrate or ascorbate, with vitamin D.

"Hansine G."
I have been using this product for several months and find it very good. It is perfect for using two to get a 1500mg per day intake for us older women. Easy to digest with the recommended D and K vitamins. Nice product.

Calcium plus DOct 21, 2009
By Bari Siegel
Both calcium and D are very important to have in a daily supplement. I need to take 1500 mg per day so this 750 tab makes it easy....would rather just take 2 per day!
