Alive! Calcium Max Absorption

I was using the chewable choclate kind before this and I noticed I started having chest pains with those, taking the two together, at the same time. So I then seperated the dosage to one in the morning and one in the evening, when I found I was forgetting to do the second dose. Not good. Then I read where the chewable chocolate kind uses calcium from limestone, which goes straight to the arteries and can cause blockages. Big time reason to drop the chewable chocolates. Then I read that if you take the chewable kind, you raise your chances of a heart attack by 85%, with the chewable chocolates. So getting rid of all the rest, I found these. A natural alternative from vegetables, instead of eating limestone. After using this "Alive" calcium supplement, I have found that I can digest it much better. It does not sit heavy on my stomach and I have had no sensation of any troubles in the heart / pain areas. This is completely all natural and from food sources, which is major and it does make all the difference in the world, when it is easy for your body to absorb. Very glad I found it and started using this version of a calcium supplement, rather than taking a huge risk with the others. I take these tablets and throw them into my blender, that I mix my fiber drinks with, each mid morning and it is really working well. Highly recommend this. Even my husband, whom NEVER likes anything, has even started taking the Men's version of "Alive" supplements and vitamins. I almost passed out, when he told me he was taking them. After 32 years, never being able to get him to take anything and he actually takes the men's version of this. Now that is saying something on the biggest levels. This product works and works well.

I switched out a grocery store bought calcium for this higher quality calcium. I really like that it also contains Magnesium, Vit D and Vitamin K2 to get the calcium to my bones better. The small downside is that you have to take 4 tablets a day for 1200mg. I bought these in Feb 2026 and the expiration date is 8/31/27.

I have been taking “Alive! Calcium Bone Formula” since March 2017. I had a bone density test in September 2016 and again in October 2018. My bone density improved by 18% in my back in that time period. (I was not on any prescription bone meds during that time period). This increase was far more significant than what I got from either Actonel OR Fosamax, which I had taken previously. I was diagnosed with osteoporosis in 2008 and took Actonel for 2 years and actually developed a slight stress fracture in my left femur while on it, so I stopped taking it for the next two years. There have been no side effects with “Alive”. Being a Pharmacist, and based on my own personal experience, I highly recommend you take this very effective product instead of those “nasty” bisphosphonates. “Alive” is not just calcium, but contains all the essential ingredients needed for healthy bones: magnesium, vitamin D, vitamin K2, Strontium, and Boron, all from plant sources for better absorption. This is the best and most effective “bone” formula that I have found to date and I highly recommend it for anyone with concerns about osteoporosis. Tell your doctor this Pharmacist said so! Don’t let any doctor tell you, you can’t increase your bone density without a prescription medication. Taking “Alive” and getting proper weight bearing exercise CAN increase your bone density. I proved it!

I love that this calcium has natural ingredients. Great for someone at 50 who needs extra calcium and vitamin d.

I love this supplement as very quality ingredients, BUT I've had intense itching since taking recommended dosage. Has anyone experienced this?

My bone density test’s were awful for a long time until someone told me to try Nature’s Alive. It’s been 100% better.

My doctor put me on this vitamin. I feel so much better after a couple of weeks of taking this product.

Every body reacts to supplements differently, so when I was told I should take more calcium I turned to Nature's Way. The Alive! formulation of this calcium fits me best. I have tried other calcium formulas and brands and they have not worked for me as well as this one has. I get it by subscription to make sure I don't run out.
