Superb supplement

I was dianosed with osteoporosis about 4 months ago. I have done a lot of research and came across this product. It not only has a good source of calcium, but vitamin D and K2, which helps direct it to the bones. I will try to update once I get my next scan. I have problems swallowing pills so I just open these up and put them in my smoothie which is helpful and it also has the enzymes and probiotics and a fruit blend...so it's an all in one product. Very impressed!!

Contains AlgaeCal, a highly absorbable calcium supplement. High quality.

Highly absorbable calcium supplement made from algae, not rocks. No binders or fillers. Also contains Vitaming D3, magnesium, and other minerals to help direct the calcium to build bones instead of soft tissue, also includes probiotics. I love the Vitamin Code products, and after much research found this to be the better price than my local health food store even when they are on sale. My blood work says that my calcium levels are very good. I divide the dosage to where I take 2 at lunch and 2 at night...your bones rebuild best at night, plus the magnesium in here helps me to relax. Do not take calcium with zinc, or B12 as they fight for absorption in your intestine, take them at a different hour. Also, do not take you B's with your C for the same reason. You can take your C with calcium, infact this supplement contains some added C! Spend your money wisely and maximize your absorption by spreading your vitamins out, do a little research. Hope I have given you a good start!

I highly recommend this esp during pregnancy

I honestly love this calcium supplement. For my 3rd pregnancy, I wanted to make sure I got enough calcium and absorbed it well. I did not get to drink enough calcium during my second pregnancy and depleted my stores due to breastfeeding my first. Well, my dentist saw the evidence in my weaker teeth enamel and I saw it in my baby’s teeth as well. They were weak and the enamel easily cracked. I really felt so bad and even guilty for overlooking this very important supplement during my pregnancy. So when I got pregnant again, I made it a point to find the right kind and came across this. This seemed to do it for me and my son’s teeth was the proof! He had really white and strong teeth and my dentist was really pleased upon seeing how healthy his teeth were. Will continue taking this even after pregnancy and breastfeeding. I highly recommend this!

Converted non-believer

After hearing about how a lot of vitamins are crap, and how your body doesn't really absorb anything from them, I was NOT enthusiastic on spending good money on vitamins. But I was pregnant, and I knew that there was no way my daily diet was enough for my growing baby's needs. I generally liked Garden of Life's prenatal (I HATE taking pills, and at least it was easier to swallow), so I thought I'd give these a try. I balked at how many I had to take -- recommended intake is 4 per day -- but dutifully went through my first bottle for my baby. When I ran out of the bottle, I procrastinated on ordering more and thought I'd take advantage of a brief break in at least this calcium vitamin, vowing to eat more yogurt in the meantime. After 2 days of not taking the vitamin, I started waking up from insanely painful charlie horses, which are generally caused by a lack of calcium and magnesium. Time to rush order another bottle. As much as I still hate buying and taking vitamins, this stuff really works.

It worked for me!

August 2016 my doctor told me I had advanced osteoporosis. When I researched the medicine he wanted to give me, it really scared me--all the side effects were so awful. I did some more study and started taking this Garden of Life Raw Calcium. I quit taking omeprazole and took 2 tablets of the calcium every day. Last week, 9 months later, my doctor did a scan and was so surprised. He said my severe osteoporosis had been reversed and I was only in osteopenia!!!! Amazing!

Best form of calcium available

A friend told me about a Mayo Clinic study that said Calcium Citrate is NOT the most absorbable OR utilizable form for the body. It is raw calcium from plant sources that is most beneficial. This has a great potency with other nutrients like Vitamins K-2 and D-3. It is more expensive, but I'm a huge believer in calcium, so it's worth it!

Works! Osteo no problem!

I Love this stuff! My Mom was suffering from osteopenia and took this for 6 months. When she went back in and had her next test it showed that she had grown bone back!!

Helps with gut issues!

This seems to have put my sluggish digestive issues back on track, after things came to a screeching halt due a long dose of antibiotics and strong pain meds for a dental abscess. If I cut back on the Raw Calcium, things slow down again. If I keep up with the full dose, I'm back on track. Every time, no exceptions, and no other changes involved. It could be the magnesium, or it could be the enzymes and probiotics. Whatever it is, I want to keep taking it forever.

A Wonderful Product Made from Raw Natural Plant-Based Products

Garden of Life's (GOL) products are my favorite brand of vitamins. All of the products I've purchased from them have been made from whole food sources, not chemicals created in a lab. I was diagnosed with osteoporosis a couple years ago. Personally (and I'm NOT suggesting that anyone would do as I do), I wanted to treat the osteoporosis in a natural way. (This is my option, and I think you should follow your doctor's recommendations, since I am not a doctor.) GOL's Raw Calcium is a whole food plant formula, and it doesn't contain crushed rocks, limestone, chalk, or animal bones. In addition, the Raw Calcium formulation includes VIt D3 and VIt K2 to help absorption. It also contains other vitamins and minerals that work with calcium in order to build up bones. Finally, GOL Raw Calcium includes Raw probiotics and enzymes. Before I found this product, I was using several different products together-Magnesium, boron, strontium-some of which had to be taken separately at different times of the day. It was confusing and costly. I highly recommend this product.

The Best Calcium & Magnesium

This is the best Calcium/Magnesium supplement I've ever had. You should become familiar with the fact there are different forms of the same vitamin; every form has a different absorption rate. Cheaper vitamins use poorly absorbable forms that damage your health and hurt your body. Garden of Life uses a higher quality form of calcium and magnesium among a few other things. Everyone has heard calcium and magnesium are good for bones, BUT they are also necessary to create tons of enzymes and hormones within the body. Calcium and magnesium is also great for athletes - they are responsible for a lot of muscle twitch reactions. You can also tell how much calcium and magnesium are in a runner and weight lifter's body just by how their muscles look (e.g. tense and tight vs. relaxed and soft). I take calcium magnesium because I have hyperthyroidism and cal/mag produces a calming effect on my body. It also helps me to reduce underarm perspiration and odor.
