73% of females and 51% of males over the age of 2 are deficient in calcium. Many people are intolerant to dairy and veganism is on the rise. A diet deficient in calcium can lead to osteoporosis later in life.
The problem with most calcium supplements is the amount of capsules you would have to swallow to get a therapeutic dose of calcium as well as magnesium.
This formula has been designed to dissolve well in water with pleasant-tasting Lipocal®, well-absorbed calcium phosphate and calcium citrate, magnesium citrate, Vitashine®, vegan-friendly vitamin D3 and natural vitamin K2 as VitaMK7.
May be taken alongside a multivitamin such as Ultimate Multi & Antioxidant for general health and wellbeing or during pregnancy, a prenatal multivitamin such as Prenatal Trimester One.
