Highly absorbable form of calcium now in a tasty chewable form. How does NSI® Calcium Citrate Chewable Tablets work? Calcium citrate may be one of the most bioavailable forms of calcium available. In fact, it's even more easily absorbed than the calcium obtained from dairy sources which makes it a good choice for those who cannot tolerate lactose or protein in dairy products. Also included healthy doses of Vitamin D and magnesium. Vitamin D assists in the transport of calcium through the bloodstream and also helps retain it. Magnesium plays a part in more than 300 enzymatic reactions, and helps maintain normal cardiovascular, muscle, nerve, bone and cellular function. NSI Calcium Citrate Chewable Tablets are better because they:. Are perfect to take anywhere. Contain a delicious orange-vanilla flavor, and only 10 calories in four tablets. . Did You Know? All NSI supplements are packaged in HDPE (High Density Polyethylene) bottles. These bottles keep moisture vapor out, protecting the freshness and integrity of their contents, and are 400% more effective compared other brands currently using PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) bottles. HDPE bottles do not break as glass can and are also recyclable so we urge you to please recycle them.

"When you need your calcium fast, grab a couple in the morn, then a couple in the evening, for your recomended portions. I take my liquid target mins quickly, but its expensive. Get only 400 from my spirutein drink and need the extra. My 86 y.o. Mom uses them well. They will stick in my teeth and one must brush after use."

"Great Value, I think that I have made some changes that will benefit me overall and this one change, adding calcium will be a help as I age. The only thing that sometimes gets to me is that I have to take 4 big pills. Yes, they are chewable, but at times its just too much chalky flavor. I WILL continue to buy this product!"

"After gastric bypass, they really want you to get the calcium down, but trying to take six horse pills with a stomach the size of an egg was killing me. Fortunately, a friend turned me on to these chewables. Worth every penny!!!!"
"This is the only Chewable Calcium Citrate I have found, and I have searched everywhere. The only drawback, in my opinion, is the orange vanilla flavor. They should stick with just the orange, adding the vanilla does not give it the best taste, although it's not a really bad taste either."

"The flavor of this calcium isn't the best. It is sour and has almost too much vanilla for my taste. Other than that it's good. I've not had time to take enough of it to see the effectiveness. I miss citracal chocolate fudge chews and hoped this would be a good replacement. If I can't find something else this will work, but I think I'll keep looking. Someone needs to develop more chewable calcium citrate products"

"The size of tablet was good and the taste was good; however I simply could not deal with the very sandy texture of this chewable. I felt that if I continued chewing these for a while I would grind my teeth down. If you can get over the very grity texture, it may fit your needs."

"After many years of searching for a calcium citrate product that would not upset my stomach, I FINALLY found one in this product. I've used the pill forms of calcium before, but they were huge and caused nausea. This chewable tastes good and disolves quickly. I take 1/2 tab 3 times a day for a total of 1500mgs. I've recommended this product to all my gal pals..."
