It has the highest absorption level of 44% as compared to calcium carbonate 22%, calcium citrate 25% or milk calcium 27%. In addition, it has integrated vitamins and minerals necessary for a complete formulation.
2. At what age do we need calcium?
From pre-school to seniors. Recent statistics reveal that 44 million citizens are calcium and magnesium deficient. Doctor's Calcium is recommended for strong bones, healthy teeth, blood pressure, cholesterol, insomnia, leg cramps, PMS, overweight conditions, etc.

4. What are the first signs of calcium loss in our bones?
We start losing calcium starting at age 35. It starts with an occasional backache that gets progressively worse and more painful.
5. Other than a having a fracture, what are some of the outward signs of chronic calcium deficiency?
The typical sign is noted in our parents and grandparents who have lost several inches or more in height due to bone loss from their vertebrae. It is common for a parent to comment on how much they have shrunk in height. A young adult standing next to his parents will notice in the following years that a similar photograph will show a shorter/shrinking parent(s). This is preventable by taking a calcium supplement designed to provide greater calcium absorption.
6. What are the other benefits of calcium supplements?
Weight loss - More energy - Less PMS - Reduce backaches - Maintain good cholesterol - Normalize blood pressure - Tonic for the heart - Good night sleep - Hormone activity - Enzyme production - Leg cramps, etc.
7. If I already have bone loss (osteoporosis) - What can I do?
High absorption calcium will re-establish normal bone density. Osteoporosis is preventable and reversible.
8. How long do I have to take Doctor's Calcium?
Osteoporosis (brittle bones) and osteopenia (soft bones) should be considered a metabolic disorder, the same as diabetes. . Also, as we get older and are less exposed to sunlight (vitamin D) with diminished hormone production and diminished dietary intake of calcium (all of which is critical for calcium metabolism) - it is recommended to take Doctor's Calcium for a lifetime. The benefits far outweigh the cost of having a fractured hip.
9. How important is Magnesium?
Very important! The Dept. of Agriculture has determined that 50% of Americans are magnesium deficient. Magnesium is as important as calcium for maintaining bone density and is included in the formula for Doctor's Calcium.
