Joint & BoneServing: 1 Soft Chew(s)Type: Other Combinations

Caltrate Soft Chews 600+D3 Bone Strength Chocolate Truffle is a Joint & Bone supplement designed to support bone health. Each soft chew provides 600 mg of Calcium, which research suggests is a clinically studied dose for bone support. However, the Vitamin D3 content at 20 mcg (800 IU) is considered underdosed when compared to some clinical recommendations for optimal bone health. This product has an N+ Score of 64, resulting in a 'D' grade, indicating average quality. With five ingredients, the label offers moderate transparency, but the underdosed Vitamin D3 is a key area for improvement. This supplement may benefit individuals looking for a convenient calcium source, but who may need to supplement Vitamin D3 separately.
