• Water-Miscible Vitamin D (WM): We utilize a dry, water-miscible form of vitamin D to further enhance absorption. This means that this nutrient does not need to be taken with fat to optimize absorption, unlike many fat-soluble vitamins included in other brands.

• Supplemental calcium is critical for every patient undergoing surgical weight loss to ensure bone health and the number one recommended form is calcium citrate. Each Calcium PLUS 500 contains 500 mg of calcium citrate in each chewable. Dosages greater than 500- 600 mg per serving will not be properly absorbed.
• It is important to look for a product manufactured in a GMP Certified facility. A GMP Certified facility is one that has proven to have good manufacturing practices. This is a pharmaceutical certification that ensures products are consistently produced and controlled according to quality standards.
• No artificial colors.

Important:

• If you are experiencing persistent nausea, vomiting, GI upset, or other symptoms contact your healthcare provider immediately.

Warning:

• Patients should follow the instructions of their bariatric surgeon regarding proper supplementation. Proper supplementation should be viewed as an individualized regimen based on each patient’s individual medical history, laboratory studies, and current medication use.

What vitamins should not be taken with calcium citrate?

Avoid taking calcium at the same time as iron supplements, as they compete for absorption. Space them at least two hours apart. Your bariatric dietitian can help you schedule your supplement routine.

Is chewable calcium citrate better absorbed than tablets?

Chewable calcium citrate begins breaking down as soon as you chew it, which can support faster absorption. Unlike calcium carbonate, calcium citrate does not need stomach acid to absorb, making chewable tablets a convenient and effective format.

Should you take calcium citrate with vitamin D?

Yes, vitamin D helps the body absorb and use calcium more effectively. Our Calcium PLUS 600 tablets include vitamin D to support this process, so you do not need a separate supplement.
