- Vitamin D (cholecalciferol): 2.5 mcg (13% DV)
How to take
Take 2 capsules three times daily with water; taking with meals may enhance tolerance and mineral absorption. If using other mineral supplements, take them at different times of day to reduce competition for absorption.
Ingredients explained
Calcium (as Albion Calcium bisglycinate chelate)
Calcium provides the elemental mineral needed for bone mineralization and muscle and nerve function, and the bisglycinate chelate form may aid absorption in the gut.
Caution: Take with food if sensitive, as minerals on an empty stomach may cause stomach upset; separate from high-dose iron or zinc by a few hours to avoid absorption competition.
Vitamin D (cholecalciferol)
Vitamin D supports intestinal absorption of calcium by regulating calcium-binding proteins and mineral transport in the gut.
Caution: Do not combine with high-dose vitamin D supplements without checking total intake to avoid excessive levels.
How they work together
Vitamin D promotes intestinal calcium absorption, while chelated calcium provides the elemental mineral in a form that may be easier to absorb. Together, they support efficient calcium uptake and utilization for structural and neuromuscular needs.
Safety and tips
Label Warning: For adults only. Consult a healthcare provider before use if pregnant or nursing, taking medication, or have a medical condition.
Who should be cautious: People taking thyroid medications or certain antibiotics may need to separate calcium by at least 2 hours to avoid reduced absorption. Those with a history of kidney stones or high calcium levels should discuss with a healthcare provider.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place.
