      • Suitable for everyday wellness seekers
      • Free of gluten, dairy, soy, nuts, sugar, salt, and artificial colors or flavors

      As a dynamic duo, calcium and vitamin D outshine the competition. Calcium is an important mineral that supports the health of your bones and teeth, and vitamin D helps your body absorb calcium efficiently.

      A single serving of The Vitamin Shoppe brand Calcium Citrate + Vitamin D tablets contain 1,000mg of chelated calcium for strong teeth and bones, and 400 IU of vitamin D2 for easy absorption.

      Frequently Asked Questions

      What is chelated calcium?

      A chelated mineral is a mineral that is bound to an amino acid, which makes it more bioavailable. Therefore, chelated calcium is more easily absorbed in the body than standard calcium.

      Apparently orders are not reviewed prior to shipping
      I ordered Calcium Citrate + Vitamin D, 240 tablets, but was instead shipped Calcium Capsules 1000mg, 100 softgels. I cannot tolerate Calcium Carbonate and cannot take what was shipped to me. I am irritated that I now must make a special trip to the Temecula store in hopes that they will exchange the wrongly shipped item for the correct one. It is very clear on the shipping insert and on my order that I did not order calcium carbonate or softgels.

      Calcium citrate plus vitamin b
      I have malabsorption due to surgery so do not tolerate calcium carbonate. I also live in an area where vitamin D deficiency is common. I find the subject calcium-vitamin D supplement to be just what I need.
      I would like to see the number of capsules needed for daily dosage reduced from 4/day, but really don?t know if that?s viable.

      Calcium Citrate + Vitamin D
      A very good product. I need to take a calcium supplement, and my doctor suggested that it be accompanied with vitamin D, which helps in its absorption.

      I need to know if this pill is really large? I have trouble swallowing and need the smallest calcium citrate tablet as possible.

      Can this product be taken without food?
      A shopperJun 23, 2013

        Most vitamins are better taken with food, they are absorbed better and are more likely not to bother your digestion. Splitting the dosage to one in the morning and one at noon or nite is preferable also.

        Because the technical and medical questions are not a 'customer question', I gave links to expert info, but Vitamin Shoppe doesn't allow URLs to other sites.

      ON THIS TOPIC, phrasing of the online references SEEMS to be almost identical word-for-word ACROSS these several (seemingly) "authoritative" websites (WebMD, MayoClinic, Wikipedia, NY Times, etc.)

      WebMD says:

      How to use calcium carbonate-vitamin D2 Oral
      Take this medication by mouth with food. If your product contains calcium citrate, then it may be taken with or without food. Follow all directions on the product package, or take as directed by your doctor. For best absorption, if your total daily dose is more than 600 milligrams, then divide your dose and space it throughout the day. If you are uncertain about any of the information, consult your doctor or pharmacist.

      The limiting factor SEEMS TO BE the TYPE of Calcium, NOT the type or form of vitamin D. Otherwise (if the FORM of the calcium is NOT calcium carbonate), one takes the supplement WITH food.

      IMO Vitamin Shoppe SHOULD clarify instructions for this and all their products. Concern about vitamin interactions has also been expressed.

        I would highly recommend you take w/ food for absorption. "Vitamin D, a fat-soluble vitamin is required for the absorption and utilization of calcium and phosphorus by the intestinal tract" - Prescription for Nutritional Healing A-Z Guide to Supplements.

        I usually take it with breakfast but at night I take 2 more capsules just before bed with no ill effects. So, for me, I would say, "yes, it can be taken without food".

      Does this product have magnesium in it? I am allergic to magnesium and I am trying to find a calcium pill that does not contain magnesium.
      Rebecca KAug 11, 2014

        Yes.Under 'other ingredients' it is listed as magnesium stearate but it's listed as the fourth on a list of six (which in theory should contain less than the first, second, or third on the list). You ought to be able to pull up the label of these products online so you can see all the 'other ingredients ... I just can't remember how. Good luck.

      Is this product vegan-compliant. Its predecessor product WAS vegan-compliant and suitably marked 'vegan', but this product has a conspicuous absence of the word 'vegan' - and the vegan consumer would THUS need to ASK for EXPLICIT ASSURANCE that the product is vegan-compliant.

      Is the product vegan-compliant?

        It doesn’t say vegan compliant anywhere on the label.

      5 Nutrients Other Than Calcium That Support Healthy Bones

      As anyone who was told to drink their milk growing up knows, calcium and strong bones practically go hand-in-hand. And though this mineral does your bones plenty of good (after all, our bones are literally built out of calcium!), it isn’t the only nutrient needed for bone health. Here are five other major players.

        Maintain the Proper Balance Between K2, D3 & Calcium, With This Delicious, Vegan Gummy. Let these vitamins work synergistically for your health.

        Our delicious K2 + D3 Calcium gummies, with three flavors in one: Peach, Mango & Apricot, are made from vegan Lichen and Natto. Very few foods in nature contain vitamin D and most D3 supplements are sourced from lanolin - the fat of lamb's wool; ours is sourced from wild-crafted, vegan Lichen. Our K2 is sourced from Natto, a traditional Japanese fermented soybean product, which is the highest food source of natural K2. The process of fermentation and extraction naturally removes soy from the product. It is estimated that 80% of Americans do not get enough K2 in their diet, comparable to the deficiency rate of vitamin D. The combination of Vitamins D3 and K2 is crucial in aiding the body in Calcium absorption, keeping your bones strong and healthy and your arteries clear of blockages.
