Yes but calcium citrate is what my doc recommended. It is absorbed better

if you like Calcium citrate, take it. My dr says the most important thing is taking calcium regularly (which I do when it's a treat, not an obligation) and taking calcium with vitamin D since CA works more effectively when combined with D

True, it is absorbed better. BUT ... if you don't take your calcium pills at the frequency you're supposed to or miss doses -- because you have a difficult time getting the hard, dry pills down your throat -- these delicious chews are an excellent alternative. I NEVER miss taking these!

It is 100% calcium citrate... so the other 2370 mg is citric acid... if you don't have absorption problems... you should use calcium carbonate... it is cheaper and has a higher percentage of calcium, but since it depends on stomach acid to digest you should take it with food... calcium citrate on the other hand has a lower percentage of calcium, but can easily digest without stomach acid, which it's why it it's recommend after gastric bypass...

I don't think so but you can look at the product here: http://www.vitacost.com/natures-way-alive-calcium-bone-formula-120-tablets

Tricalcium phosphate (very hard on your stomach due to higher percentage of elemental calcium, which increases the risk of kidney stones). I have since switched to Calcium Citrate, which is easier on the kidneys, easier to absorb, and can be taken without food.

Calcium in high amounts may inhibit HCA, which is the active ingredient in Garcinia Cambogia. However, since some of our clients have a low Calcium intake, they can benefit from this presentation of our Garcinia Cambogia, without no harm being done to its efficiency and potency.

To my knowledge, the answer is "no". I have been using VIACTIV for a very long time in order to add calcium to my diet. I was diagnosed with Osteoporosis about 30 years ago, and could not handle the size of those big pills. Viactiv was a great way to get a large dose at one time. It's very tasty as well, and my calcium levels are considerably better than they used to be. No longer have a calcium deficiency.

no, it does not. On the ingredients listed, calcium does not show up, that is why I bought it

This is not correct. If you go to Doctor Oz's website and read or watch about garcinia cambogia, he said among other things, that: 1/ calcium (as well as potassium and chromium) can and should be added as they improve the efficacy of the supplement (better absorption), 2/ capsules may (and usually do) contain gelatin; this is harmless.

Sorry don't understand the question. I use the SP brank Calcium Lactate 1900. It's highly recommended. Hope this answers your question. k

There are old studies that purported magnesium citrate had greater bioavailability, but newer studies state that they are about equal...

Sorry this took so long, on vacation! Without milk, 20% calcium in the mix, hope this works for you!

There are others that have pretty complete answers for this. Main thing is the strontium is am and calcium is pm. Great mix and with three years of taking them I no longer have osteopenia

It is calcium carbonate, not calcium citrate. I have been using these for a long time and like them. I believe Citrical is calcium citrate, also available on Amazon.

Everything I read/see is that this product contains magnesium citrate (400 mg) only, not calcium.

I did some research that indicated that calcium actually prevents the absorption. It didn't matter. This product did absolutely nothing for me...a total waste of money.

I need to mention that I do take Boctor's Best Alpha-Lopoic Acid 600 mg twice daily including all of the following with the calcium intake one or two hours after the magnesium, L-Citruline 750 mg from Now, L-Carnitine 1,000 mg also from Now. LifeExtensions Optimized Folate 1 mg and other 9 supplements for my arteriosclerosis. Eventhough all the suplements I use if I take away the magnesium I will not be able to get out of the bed due to the severe and intense neuropathic pain.
