Has all the factors to support bone health. Also contains probiotics and enzymes to help utilize the product

Overall, I love garden of life products, and I’ve come to really trust their products, their reputation and third-party lab tests. This calcium supplement is a great whole foods version with real foods to nourish your body and get you the calcium and vitamin D that you need to work synergistically to help your bones. It’s great that it has MK-7 in the formula as well, which will further help absorption and direct the nutrients to the appropriate area so they don’t calcify in your arteries instead. ** proceed with caution, if you are allergic to pineapple or papaya foods! In the enzyme blend this contains bromelain and papain which are derived from a heavy concentration of papaya and pineapple. Unfortunately, there are business laws in place to protect proprietary blends like this so the company isn’t mandated to state exactly how much of each enzyme is in their “blend”. If you are someone who is sensitive to products/foods, or or suffering from a medical illness I would suggest finding a different product on Amazon that specifically states how much of each ingredient is in there. That way you can know exactly what you are reacting to you and if it helps or if it hurts.

Everywhere you look, there is a new health supplement being introduced to the market. So much so that it can be an impossible task to choose one that is best for you and your body. After many years of trial and error, I have settled on Garden of Life supplements as my daily supplementation. For my Calcium and D3 supplementation, I use this product twice daily. Why is this product great? Bioavailability. It doesn't matter how much of a certain vitamin or mineral is added to a supplement if your body simply isn't going to absorb it. Take for example, Magnesium. Many Magnesium supplements use Magnesium Oxide as the main ingredient. Did you know that only a measly ~5% of ingested Magnesium Oxide is absorbed by your body in this form? It's important to purchase supplements that are actually going to be absorbed by your body, otherwise you're just throwing money away. Whole food vitamins, used in this product, have great bioavailability because they are in a form that most resembles the food you eat throughout the day. This form allows your body to digest and absorb much higher amounts, giving you the health benefits you were looking for before buying the supplement. Added benefits. All of the Garden of Life products contain probiotic and enzyme blends that further increase the digestion of the vitamins and minerals found in their products, the food you eat, as well as promote a healthy gut microbiome. I can't think of many other companies that add probiotics to their products. Usage. The only potential downside is the amount of capsules required for the daily suggested serving size, 4 capsules per day. While this may seem inconvenient (which it can be), it is usually a good sign when a company avoids putting an entire daily serving into a single capsule or pill especially when there are so many ingredients involved. Using a single pill or capsule forces companies to cut corners and compromise on dosages, this supplement does neither. Additionally, multiple doses allows your body to get a constant stream of vitamins and minerals throughout the day instead of all at once. Overall, this is a great Calcium supplement with high bioavailability and the added benefit of digestive enzymes and raw probiotics. I would definitely suggest giving this supplement a try.

All natural and more healthy.

I was taking several vitamins a day (Calcium Citrate, D3, K-2, Magnesium, and C). I was taking Calcium Citrate because I thought it was the only form of calcium that wouldn't cause constipation. I found this Garden of Life Vitamin Code Raw Calcium Supplement and it looked great because it had all the supplements I was already taking plus it had a probiotic. I also liked that the calcium and magnesium were from whole food plant based Algae instead of a rock. I ordered it and prayed that the calcium algae would not cause constipation. I have been taking it for a few weeks now and have had no problems. I also find the capsules easier to swallow than the large calcium tablets I was taking before. I am so glad I found this supplement.

It is a good product, but sadly it has been out of stock almost a year now... hope there will be stock soon. Only can afford to purchase at discount, and iherb given best discount
