Date:July 7, 2011

"This product has a good ratio of Ca & Mg in capsule form. Easier to swallow than tabs. I'd probably like it better if the magnesium were citrate as opposed to oxide."

Title:Great Calcium Supplement

Date:December 30, 2009

"I'm a scientist and a medical student. I've been looking for a calcium citrate with magnesium supplement without "vitamin" D (actually a hormone, not a vitamin), which is in too many products. I have been unable to find that in stores. This is the best I have found anywhere. Get your "vitamin" D from the sun where you're supposed to get it. Mag citrate instead of mag ox would have been better, but it's not bad. I just wish the shipping didn't cost more than the product."

Date:July 25, 2009

I also give about 1/2 a capsule of Calcium Citrate Plus Magnesium to my pregnant and nursing Chihuahua's, because I know this is a natural supplement, I'm not sure the ones specifially for animals are.
This product provides a complete need value of Calcium, and is easy to digest and assimilate in the body.
The price is good as well."
