How to Choose a Calcium Supplement You Can Trust | Pharmacist

How can you tell whether a calcium supplement is trustworthy?

Clinical pharmacist Jennifer Han, PharmD, walks through the qualities she considers most important: responsible ingredient sourcing, traceability, safety testing, label accuracy, and evidence-informed formulation.

Jennifer also explains how a food-based calcium chew can concentrate calcium from milk minerals while retaining naturally occurring nutrients. She discusses a formulation containing 500 mg of dietary calcium, the removal of more than 99% of its lactose, and the wider nutrient team involved in bone health—including vitamin D, vitamin K2, magnesium, protein, and fiber.

In this conversation:

• Why the source of a supplement matters
• Ingredient traceability and supplier quality
• Safety testing and label accuracy
• Milk-mineral calcium and lactose sensitivity
• Calcium, vitamin D, K2, and magnesium
• Protein, fiber, and the larger bone-health picture
