Vitamin Code Raw Calcium Supplement with Magnesium and Vitamins D3 & K2 – Bone Health Calcium with Probiotics, Digestive Support, Immune Support, Non-GMO, Gluten-Free, 120 Capsules

Disclaimer: No conflict of Interest. This is almost all in one product. The single reason I bought this product is based on my extensive research of available scientific data : trying to find a calcium supplement , that would minimize the risk for cardiovascular disease/plaque formation which is a risk factor with calcium supplements The research has demonstrated , calcium supplements do contribute and do cause cardiovascular heart disease via plaque formation while calcium in dairy products does not (Unfortunately, dairy products do contribute to general inflammation). Of all the products available on the market this product has it. Vitamin K2. Vitamin K2 prevents plaque formation and even dissolves already formed plaque in arteries based on existing scientific data , thus preventing risk of heart disease. This product also has most other essential components for calcium utilization such as vitamin C, vitamin D3, Magnesium thus do not have to take them separately, therefore, making it almost all in one product. I wish it also had Zink and Copper then it would be fully complete. Zink and Copper are also needed for calcium utilization. It has a lot of other components such as strontium, boron, silica, vanadium (the research data is mixed on these products) so would rather not have these until conclusive research data is available. Raw organic fruit and vegetable blend I think is a waste. You cannot put fruits or vegetables in a pill. Also , when fruits and vegetables go through extensive processing and their components are broken down the benefits are minimal if at all and sometimes can be downright harmful. The fruits and vegetables ,when whole , have all needed components, that balance each other out and when you separate them they could start acting in your body like a bully as balancing components are lost. It is like breaking a family apart. I could have done without this blend as well. RAW probiotic or enzyme blend. I am not sure about these either. If it was my choice I would prefer to have simply pure calcium pill with all the required components for its utilization. This is rather expensive supplement. But it is so far the best on the market yet. I have a favorite company , I get my supplements from , that has all pure components no any extras , unfortunately their calcium supplement does not have Vitamin K2. Good alternative for managing the expense would be taking 1 pill twice a day and supplementing the rest with dairy products, especially with Kefir as it has the most benefits of all dairy products , including tons of probiotics. That is what I do. I use 1 pill with 1/2 cup of Kefir. This is my ideal mix. But I do not do it for expense, I do it, for health benefits. I try to minimize pills I take and prefer to get everything naturally as much as possible. Pills can never replace “whole” foods. The conclusion. Pros: This is a high quality calcium supplement. Has Vitamin K2 to counteract plaque formation from calcium supplement. Cons. It is expensive.

great natural medicine. Even my doctor likes it. I don't take pharmaceuticals

I've been buying Garden of Life Vitamin Code Raw Calcium for about 2 years. It's a plant-based calcium from Algae & also has raw probiotics & enzymes. I feel it's helping my calcium level to rise. It doesn't bother my sensitive stomach & the pills are not too big & easy to swallow.

This provides all of the key vitamins and minerals that everyone needs! Also, the selected vitamins and minerals work in concert to provide maximum benefit of supplementation. I feel well taking this as directed on the label, but even taking half of the recommended dose will nourish the body.

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.

So far so good. I bought this after I researched it. It has a good combination of ingredients that the bones need. Have not noticed any side effects. Has a neutral flavor, no problem with the smell. It's more expensive than some of the other calcium I've taken over the years. Doesn't affect my sleep.

I started taking it because I had severe leg discomfort and cramping from muscle tension and neuropathy. I find that it helps soothe my legs at night and helps with my sleep. I think it’s a good value for the money. It helps my all overall leg discomfort.

This is the best for stronger bones

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
