Prevention Magazine: Break Proof Your Bones

If you get 3 calcium enriched servings a day through your diet, you may not need to supplement. However, on days when you don't, consider Viactiv. One delicious Viactiv chew is 500mgs of calcium, so if you consume 1-2 servings of a calcium from your diet, it would be wise to supplement with a Viactiv chew. Remember, 500 mg is the maximum amount of calcium your body can absorb at one time, so you should not take 2 chews together, take them separately, preferably with meals or snacks.
