Pure Encapsulations Calcium (Citrate) - Supplement for Bone, Teeth, Colon, and Cardiovascular Health Support* - with Premium Calcium Citrate - 180 Capsules

I really appreciate the purity and quality of this calcium citrate supplement from Pure Encapsulations. The brand has a great reputation for clean formulations, and this one lives up to it—no unnecessary fillers or additives, which gives me peace of mind. The capsules are easy to swallow and gentle on my stomach, unlike some other calcium supplements I’ve tried in the past. I feel confident knowing I’m supporting my bone and overall health with a product that’s both effective and trustworthy.

A good product. Only issue is two capsules are only 300 mg. Not a daily dose.

Seems to be of good quality and easy to swallow capsules.

Pure Encapsulations Calcium is a fantastic product. Yes, they are more expensive than many other vitamin and supplement brands, but for some things I don't mind paying more. There are many reasons why paying more makes sense. First, they are pharmaceutical grade products. Pharmaceutical grade products are defined as: A pharmaceutical-grade compound (PGC) is defined as “any active or inactive drug, biologic or reagent, for which a chemical purity standard has been established by a recognized national or regional pharmacopeia (e.g., the United States Pharmacopeia (USP).” This is also followed by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). PGC means hgher purity and quality, better absorption, rigorous testing standards, and more reliable dosages. What does this product have none off of--binders and fillers. Secondly, it's beneficial to spread calcium doses out through the day especially as you get older. It's easier on your kidneys and less likely to contribute to kidney stone formation and things like gas and bloating when taken this way. More importantly, your body can only absorb so much CA at a time. When you take a mega dose, you're likely to just pee out anything over 500 mg. By spreading out the dosage you get maxium absorption. Soooo, if you're a woman and over 51 you should be getting at least 1,200 mg of calcium a day. Yes, that means you need to remember to take this product four times a day. To me, it's worth it.

Works

My physician recommends that I take a daily calcium supplement, so that was the first step. I did not need a calcium supplement with other vitamins/minerals included in the formula. The one I was taking did have other vitamins/minerals, so my job was to find a pure calcium supplement. As I searched, there it was... "PURE ENCAPSULATIONS CALCIUM (CITRATE)!" A perfect march for me! Not only because of the previously mentioned factors, but the fact that I was also looking for a calcium "citrate" product because it is the most gentle on the stomach, and quickly absorbed.

Excellent calcium supplement exactly what I was looking for

These calcium capsules are basically the responsible adult of my supplement drawer. No weird aftertaste, no stomach drama, just quietly doing their job like a well-behaved vitamin should. I don’t feel my bones getting stronger, but I’m choosing to believe they’re silently applauding me. Would buy again — my skeleton approves.
