A convenient calcium-citrate chew with a form suited to bariatric use, but the assumed one-chew routine provides only 250 mg and the label leaves frequency to a practitioner.
Scoring criteria
Quantity
50 / 100The assumed routine supplies 250 mg calcium, a meaningful but clearly partial amount for bariatric supplementation; the label does not specify whether a practitioner would prescribe more.
Form
90 / 100Calcium citrate is less dependent on stomach acid than calcium carbonate, a relevant absorption advantage for bariatric use.
Convenience
100 / 100The label gives no frequency and says to follow a practitioner; I assume one chew once daily, so the regimen and package duration are uncertain.
Label accuracy
100 / 100The supplied panel consistently declares 250 mg calcium per chew and gives no contradictory claim.
Purity
75 / 100No product-specific purity testing or contaminant information is supplied, so quality remains at the ordinary unresolved mark.
Cofactors
50 / 100The separately declared 3.1 mcg vitamin D has a complementary role, though its added benefit at this modest amount is uncertain.
