Garden of LifeCalcium Supplement with Magnesium & Organic Vitamin D3 K2, Made from Whole Foods, Gluten-Free, 180 CountUSDA Organic

I decided to give these plant-based calcium pills a try after my doctor recommended I start taking a supplement to keep my bones strong. These are tasteless, relatively small compared to some other supplements, and can be taken with a meal. The directions call for taking three pills daily, so I can space out taking them over the course of each day, with either main meals or even a snack, and taking smaller amounts of calcium at each meal seems to be more beneficial for my digestion without having to worry about calculating how to get the same benefit from milk based products. Those people at risk for developing osteoporosis may find the plant calcium in these easier to tolerate than ingesting milk products, and those people who are lactose intolerant may find these pills easier on the digestive tract without having to eat cheese or milk. The price is right for me, and I can choose from several size bottles.Taste:None noticed.

My Calcium was low so my Doctor told me to take a Calcium Supplement. I decided to pick this one because it is Vegan and Organic. It also already contains D3 and K2. I began taking it in October 2024. By January 2025, my next lab showed Calcium and D3 levels all back to normal range so it worked quickly for me. I am grateful! I also only take 2 Tablets a day because I eat a lot of Vegetables and Fruit and Plant Milks and Cereals along with Tofu daily — which all contain some Plant Calcium already. So 2 Tabs a day are perfect amount for me. That also saves me money because the bottle lasts longer. I had a problem using dairy Calcium when I tried it first because I wasn’t thinking to even look for Plant Calcium (facepalm) The dairy chews I took on the first day or two gave me terrible gas pain and constipation. Then I found Garden of Life brand and all is well! No gas pains ever. No constipation ever with these. So that’s a win! The taste is neutral. You can take with whatever beverage you like. I use water usually, but sometimes Apple Juice. I take an extra dose of Garden of Life D3 Spray with this mixed in Apple Juice and it tastes like Apple Pie with Vanilla Ice Cream if it was a Juice because the GOL D3 Spray is Vanilla flavored. So it’s tasty! lol. That gives me my extra D3 my Doctor advised me to take. So yes it is definitely effective to help Calcium and D3 levels. I am guessing my K2 level is now fine as well. As for my skin health or nails, the jury is still out. I mean so far so good on hair and skin (nails not so much, but finding other supplements etc for them), but I am Menopausal and this is all new to me to deal with. I am supplementing for my skin health also with Vegan Collagen (Everydaze brand) which is fantastic, but only been on that a week and a half, so I don’t know progress for my skin yet. Taking it mostly for joints and nails. Hopeful. I mean I think I can pass for 30’s-40’s still. lol So my skin is doing well. I will mention that I didn’t know K2 was for hair until my hair suddenly started not only growing new hair in quickly, but also the texture of my hair changed to Curlier than it was. I already had naturally curly wavy hair, but this kicked it up several notches in volume and curl. My Daughter pointed that out to me when I asked “how is my hair suddenly doing this??!” She said “It’s the K2 vitamin. It’s for hair.” I had no idea! Thanks! That was an unexpected bonus to me! So I just opened my 5th Bottle of these and will re-order monthly.

Started taking these calcium supplements soon as I receive them continuing to take. I hope I see some improvement with my bones.I was told to take Caltrate with Vitamin D for bone health but looking at the ingredients there’s a lot of the dye in that product that they say causes cancer now so I’m not taking those making me look for the best alternative. This garden of life brand I have taken in multivitamins and I find it. They’re pretty good and I’ll stick to these brand for a while because they are plant-based. I never get enough vegetables, so it’s up hopefully a double calcium and veggie supplement. The only problem I have with this supplement is you have to take three a day. I only take two a day in the morning after breakfast. I was doing one in the morning after breakfast one and one after lunch and one after dinner but I take two in the am. I don’t get any stomach upset or pain.Addendum this item comes in dark glass bottles which is great. Plastic bothers me when you see or look up what plastics can do to you I’ll always be grateful for glass containers especially for vitamins and your drinking water.

Wonderful herb selection and use. Been using forever. Noticeable a difference when I stop using. Feel it really supports my immunity and system.

Great product, Quick ship!

I have trouble digesting many vitamins and supplements. This product is a little pricey but I find it to be easily digestible. Calcium is so important for strong bones and this product delivers.

One thing I have learned is that everyone is going to have different reactions to medication. This doesn't determine if it is quality or not. I cannot take any supplement that isn't food-based, so I was thrilled to find this calcium. It is packed with all kinds of nutrients. My Mom, who has osteoporosis, said her doctor was very impressed with the ingredients and that it has definitely helped. It has never made me sick or nauseous. Does this mean that it might not cause others to? No, but if you look at other food-based calcium, you will get more bang for your buck.
