As I have read in many online materials, I should add a calcium supplement to homemade cat food. I live in Thailand, there is no calcium powder sold here. Fortunately, I can buy it on Ecosupplements.com. It is easy to add Now Foods Pure Calcium Carbonate Powder to homemade cat food, all of my 10 cats eat the food with calcium. The quality is good.

This product is so much easier to use than swallowing one of those gigantic calcium tablets I was recently prescribed. It dissolves instantly in anything hot/warm. I did not know this type of product but really happy to have found it on the Ecosupplements site. The price is also reasonable. Product delivered on time.

Best supplement ever for tight muscles, sore muscles, knots in muscles, weak bones. When I feel pain in the hips or a tight back muscle, I take 1/2 t daily. mixed with OJ. (Also do stretching exercises for your back and use a heating pad/ibprofen as needed). It is also a very good supplement for people suffering from osteoporosis. (I actually stopped taking my Osteo.med due to severe back pain! One of the side effects!) The Mayo Clinic site has a good article on this and also CITRATE powder calcium which contains less calcium but absorbs more easily in a stomach that has problems such as absorption problems caused by acid reflux medications. ** With calcium carbonate I also mix 1/2 t. Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C Powder) to aid in the absorption of this stronger calcium powder.

Great way to take calcium. Other calcium supplements were hard to swallow and digest.

This is a great quality calcium supplement to buy. It comes at a very low price. I take it for its health benefits and also use it in my homemade toothpowder in combination with other ingredients! The taste is good. In fact, it doesn’t taste good to me.

make my own dog food, and before I found this calcium in powder form, I was crushing calcium tablets. Not funny. It’s so much easier. Calcium is a necessary ingredient in dog food and people who make their own should know about this product and how easy it is to use. Good quality, and I’m grateful for that.

Awesome! I bought this for my cat to supplement her raw meals. Calcium is very important in a cat’s diet, not meeting calcium requirements would be detrimental to the health of any cat. This supplement is also essential for balancing the calcium to phosphorus ratio so that there is no conflict in mineral absorption. My cat is almost 4 years old and has been raw fed for over a year! She is healthy and happy! I can attest to the quality of this supplement. A++

My son couldn’t tolerate any dairy products but he needed calcium somehow. So we tried this product and had no reaction. If you’re taking calcium supplements, we’ve found that you also need to take vitamins D3 and K2. Vitamin D3 ensures the absorption of calcium. Vitamin K2 (especially in the MK-7 form, the most bioavailable form) directs it to areas of your body such as your bones, so it can be put to good use. Without K2, absorbed calcium can deposit in the arteries, where it can lead to calcification or other problems. We used all 3 supplements at the same time as they all complement each other. We know that to be true. We used calcium and D3 supplements for several months. Then we noticed the ‘blue toes’ growing and thought it must be some form of calcification. We did some research and found it was lacking in vitamin K, so we tried supplementing K2 and the “blue toes” started to go away over time. So please supplement the calcium with D3 and K2!

I purchased this to use in my homemade toothpaste, and, so far, so good. I just had a series of dental appointments with a lot of work done, but never once did my dentist tell me that I had to brush better! I’m a happy camper!

Very economical. Dissolves easily. Doesn’t taste bad. You only use a very small amount. I like to take it with my vitamin D supplement to improve absorption. Also avoid taking it with other supplements like iron. Take it with food, but like most other supplements, no caffeine. Great way to fill up on calcium, especially when you’re not drinking milk.

I have been buying this product for years and have used it to make toothpowder. It can be used to remineralize your teeth.

quality so far so good. you have been taking it for more than a month. the only thing that needs improvement is to include a measuring spoon long enough to reach the end of the bottle. Another thing I notice about this is that the calcium powder might stick on the cup and spoon even after rinsing them.
