Calcium Citrate

[lauramomof3 2]

last week i picked up some calcium citrate at GNC. they are really good and chewable. they are a little big but they actually taste really good and i don't have to swallow a horse pill... good luck

I was really hoping to find a local source of chewable calcium citrate but I wasn't successful. Most everything was carbonate and the only citrate I could find was in a caplet. I found a liquid citrate in Fred Meyer - it's like drinking chalk .. so I am awaiting for my BA order. I had to cave to on-line ordering but I will keep looking. If any fellow Canadians know of a source, please let me know.

Thank goodness for these older posts! Now I know how to get chewable calcium citrate. I have been looking at all kinds of stores with NO luck.

They are the one thing I dread every day. I got some chewable calcium citrate from the vitamine shop and didn't realize until after surgery that I would have to take four of them to meet my 1000mg requirement. They are like eating citrus flavored chalk. The glass bottle broke on the way home at Christmas, and I didn't want to chance swallowing a sliver of glass on them, so I got to throw them all away. Hooray! Now I am trying the Bariatric Advantage samples I got from the doc. The flavors are horrid, and still chewy chalk. At least I only have to take two of them. I tried a choc chew from Bariatric Advantage, and it wasn't too bad, but then it is back to 4 a day. It still tasted chalky. I would rather just swallow a pill, but everything I read says that it absorbs better in chewable or liquid. Sigh. Any chances that there is something out there that isn't chalky?

I have to take 6 chewables a day so feel lucky. I just got some samples today from my doctor, bariatric advantage. I tried rasberry and it wasn't bad at all.

I take the Celebrate calcium citrate Plus 500. 2 chewables per day. I like the taste and texture. I have the berries and cream flavor. I used to like the lemon Calcet chewy things, but they lost their luster.

For me, the Celebrate work perfectly, it's a measily 2 chewables, they dissolve quickly, and don't taste like chalk to me. The cherry flavor and berries flavors are my favorite.

I also take their Mulit-Vitamin with Iron, YUMMY. Again, just 2 chewables per day. I take 1 Calcium wait a couple of hours, take another mid morning/early afternoon. And, I take my multi at night after dinner.

You just have to make sure that your calcium and mulit with Iron are not taken within 2 hours of each other since the iron prevents the calcium from being properly absorbed.

I cancelled my order of the Calcet lemon chews just because I wanted to save money for clothes LOL.

I ordered the Twinlab capsules from vitacost.com It's 125 doses for around 9 bucks.

Tiffy,

If you'll give me your mailing address I'll be glad to send you my Lemon Calcet chews I ordered. I don't like them after all you've helped me thru...it would make me happy to donate them to you! Let me know!

Awwwwwwww thanks so much, but I don't like them anymore. I got some more samples, and they tasted funky now. I'm hooked on their regular Calcium chewables now.
