Available in delicious flavors like Dark Cherry, Chocolate, and Cinnamon. Sugar-free.
Calcium citrate is more bioavailable than some other forms of calcium, and is recommended for bariatric patients.1 It can be taken any time of the day, with or without food while other forms of calcium need to be taken with food for absorption. Additionally, calcium citrate may be more easily absorbed by patients who have had bariatric procedures that result in reduced stomach acids, as it does not require stomach acids for absorption.1 Calcium requires vitamin D3 for absorption.
ASMBS guidelines call for 1,200-1,500 mg calcium per day for patients most bariatric procedure types, with the exception ofBiliopancreatic DiversionDuodenal Switch (BPD-DS) patients, where they call for 1,800-2,400 mg per day.2 Divided doses are recommended with no more than 500 mg being consumed at once.
Calcium is a critical nutrient for bones and teeth–99% of calcium is found in teeth and bones. It also plays an important role in tissue health and nervous system health, along with muscle contraction.*

Chewable Calcium
Allyson
from California calcium_citrate_chewable_500mg5
Chocolate chewable calcium has good flavor, it is somewhat chalky but it is a chewable vitamin! Definitely ordering more.

The taste is bad!
Cheri Parker
from Northern Minnesota calcium_citrate_chewable_500mg1
These don’t have a good taste. They’re very strong flavored and almost make my tongue feel burnt. I won’t order them again but I’m too frugal to return them. So I choke down one per day and use a different calcium supplement the other two times per day.

New formula is not as good
Anne
from Central coast, CA calcium_citrate_chewable_500mg3
I would have given a 5 star rating to the previous version of the chocolate chewable calcium tablets. Unfortunately, the formula has been changed and has more sugar (which no one needs) and the tablets are too sweet and also gritty. It’s a shame because I’ve been taking these for several years and now I have to find another brand.

Chewable Calcium
Barbara W. Delnero
from Little Egg Haror, NJ calcium_citrate_chewable_500mg5
Being much larger than my previous company's chewable, it took a little getting used to. I did notice a very slight aftertaste, but it's not overly noticeable or long-lasting. So far, as a newbie here, I am very pleased with this item.

Definitely Tart
Tammy
from USA calcium_citrate_chewable_500mg5
This is a good formula, and the taste is rather tart, but you soon get used to it. What I mean by tart is it sort of stung my tongue at first till I got used to it. However, the taste is very pleasing once you get used to the overall experience. I have tried other brands I still think even with the stingy taste till your used to it, it still wins hands down. Thank you, Bariatric Advantage!
