Calcium Citrate Petites + D3
About This Product
21st Century Calcium Citrate Petites + D3 is a joint and bone support supplement with two active ingredients: Calcium Citrate at 400mg and Vitamin D3 at 13mcg (520 IU) per two-tablet serving. The Calcium content is at a clinically studied dose, which may support bone health. However, the Vitamin D3 dosage is considered underdosed compared to amounts often recommended for optimal bone support. This product has an N+ Score of 47, resulting in an 'F' grade, placing it in a below-average tier. While it offers a clinically relevant dose of Calcium, the underdosed Vitamin D3 and limited ingredient profile contribute to its lower overall score. It may be suitable for individuals looking for a basic calcium supplement, but a more comprehensive formula might be beneficial for broader bone health support.
