Horbäach Calcium Citrate with Vitamin D3 | 1260 mg and1000IU | 250 Caplets | Vegetarian, Non-GMO, Gluten Free Supplement

These supplements are big and too many for a daily intake. I find myself avoiding to take it.

The price is affordable & my medical lab tests show that these are beneficial to my 78-year-old body health, keeping my calcium level where it is most beneficial.

My doctor told me I needed a Calcium supplement after a recent bone test. In my research, Calcium Citrate seems to be the type of Calcium most readily absorbed. I really tried to find a Calcium Citrate supplement that didn't include the vitamin D3, since I was already taking D3 separately. Now, I will have to discontinue taking the D3 and leave those pills in my cupboard. The only problem with this supplement is the huge size of the pill. It is hard to swallow and I have to swallow it carefully with plenty of water. I don't know why they can't make the pill smaller.

Thanks

Good heck, this is a big pill. I struggle with taking pills, so this is difficult it for me, but the coating should make it easier for others - normal people, LOL! I'm assuming it's doing its job. I was told to take it to hello in not getting more kidney stones and so far I haven't had more. I'm sure for lab work soon though and update if necessary. (08.08.22)

I did the absorption test and these pills are absorbable with coffee, water, etc. I can't swallow large capsules whole, so I simply chew them, then swallow them with yogurt. They are easy to chew.

I can't really give a good review. My one star is not an indication of a bad product just how do you tell if a vitamin is doing what it's supposed to be doing other than through a blood test. I take these because my doctor recommended it and brought this particular brand because I liked the price and what the description was like. Probably will buy this brand again unless the price goes up a whole bunch.

This formula was great, not sure why they replaced it with one that adds magnesium. Sad though because I can’t find this one anymore and can’t take the added magnesium because of kidney issues.
