Twinlab Calcium Citrate Plus Magnesium -- 250 Capsules

Easily Digested - Quick Acting Dietary Supplement. Calcium citrate is an easily absorbed, soluble and chelated form of calcium preferred by many health and nutritional experts. It is less likely to cause constipation - a very real and uncomfortable problem with certain calcium supplements. Twinlab Calcium Citrate Caps Plus Magnesium go to work quickly in the stomach. Calcium and magnesium tablets, on the other hand, need binders to hold them together. Naturally, these binders may resist dissolving, so it is possible for a calcium plus magnesium tablet to pass through the digestive tract without being completely absorbed. Twinlab Calcium Citrate Caps are easier to swallow and assimilate. To learn more about bone and joint health, click here.

"If you don't want to take calcium for your bones, then how about taking it for restless legs or leg cramps! I read in a book that it works for that. I was sceptical but decided to try it because my toes were cramping, my legs were cramping and I had trouble sleeping. Advil would take the edge off but that was it. I have been taking calcium now for about 3 weeks and already the cramps are a lot less. I can really tell the difference so try it for your restless legs."

"I hate swallowing pills, but these are easy. They are easily digested as well. I know the brand was recommended to me by a doctor a few years ago, so I shopped for a calcium supplement. I have tried others, but will stick to this product.
Good for perimenopausal issues."

"What drew me to this product over other calcium supplements was that 1. it is easier to swallow a capsule than a big pill; 2. the citrate form does not constipate like carbonate and 3. I can take it at any time of the day, not just with food. Happily, my bone density test is still normal at age 59, so I think it is effective as well."

"Recommended by the technician who does my bone scan tests, I've used this for more than 5 years and continue to have excellent test results. Does not cause constipation as some calcium supplements do. Vitacost beats my local discount supplement store on price."

"This is the only calcium citrate on the market without iron. You can overdose on iron so if you need 1500 mg or more of calcium a day this is the only product to use and not overdose on iron. calcium CITRATE is the only calcium that helps with osteoporosis calcium CARBONATE doesn't react the same.
I'm really glad this product is available at a reasonable cost."

"A calcium supplement is nothing to get excited about. I like this one as it isn't too hard to swallow. Some calcium supplements are huge. It is hard to judge effectiveness of a product like this, but I am very satisfied with my purchase."
