Calcium 500 mg With Vitamin D
About This Product
Nature's Bounty Calcium 500 mg With Vitamin D is a 'Single Vitamin and Mineral' supplement with two active ingredients. It received an N+ Score of 55, earning an 'F' grade, indicating a formulation that could be improved for broader efficacy. The product provides Calcium at a clinical dose of 500 mg, which is commonly used to support bone density. However, the Vitamin D content of 125 IU is significantly underdosed, as research suggests higher amounts are often needed for optimal absorption and benefits. The product maintains 100% label transparency, clearly stating all ingredient dosages. This supplement may appeal to those primarily seeking a specific dose of calcium, but it is not ideal for comprehensive Vitamin D support.
