Citrical does just that. In fact, clinical studies show that postmenopausal women who took Citrical for 2 years had a 42% reduction in bone loss. There Is a Difference Between Supplements With at least a dozen common calcium preparations and hundreds of different formulations available, choosing a calcium supplement can be confusing. Most calcium supplements contain calcium carbonate, calcium citrate, or calcium phosphate. These calcium preparations differ in a number of ways. Citrical is calcium citrate and is highly soluble (which means that itÕs easily dissolved) and extremely well absorbed by the bones whether taken with meals or without meals. The manufacturers of calcium carbonate and calcium phosphate supplements recommend their products be taken with meals in order to be used by the body. Citrical Activity Not Limited by Stomach Acid Citrical is highly soluble and easily absorbed by the body. The combination of these two properties is called bioavailability. The greater the bioavailability of calcium, the better able your body is to use it. The calcium citrate in Citrical is optimally bioavailable. Also, calcium carbonate and calcium phosphate supplements need stomach acid to be absorbed. Citrical, on the other hand, is not limited by stomach acid and is absorbed even when taken on an empty stomach. Therefore, if you need to take products to control stomach acid such as antacids, H2 antagonists or proton pump inhibitors, and you need calcium-- you definitely need Citrical! Citrical is the logical choice to make if you are taking antacids or are being treated with prescription or over-the-counter products like Tagamet, Zantac, or Pepcid AC* that work to reduce stomach acid. And, Citrical is a logical choice for older individuals because acid production decreases with age. Product Description Clinically shown to stabilize bone mass.
