Calcium + Vitamin D3
L'il Critters Calcium + Vitamin D3 is a bone health supplement presented in a gummy format, containing 6 total ingredients. This product has an N+ Score of 52, earning it an 'F' grade, indicating a below-average quality assessment. While it provides Calcium at 200mg per serving, which is considered a clinical dose, both Vitamin D (220 IU) and Phosphorus (100mg) are present in underdosed amounts, potentially limiting their effectiveness for bone support. The formulation aims to support bone health, but the low N+ Score suggests areas for improvement in ingredient dosing and overall transparency. This product may be suitable for individuals seeking a convenient, chewable calcium source, though it falls short in providing optimal levels of other key bone-supporting nutrients.
