Does Your Calcium Citrate Chew ...?

[Piplula 709]

Give you a sour after taste about 1 hour after taking it. I like them, but I have noticed this. I have tried the petite calcium citrate tablets but 6 tablets a day was a lot to me and I reflux the tabs badly. Just wondering if anyone else is experiencing this...or is it just weirdo me??!! Oh and I am currently taking Baritric Advantage calcium chews ..anybody else have a different recommendation? Brand? Ect? Thanks in advance!

No, actually I enjoy eatting them...they take care of the need I have at times to just have something in my mouth...like gum or candy or something..

What do they taste like? I've been looking for some in the store but can't seem to find any chewables. Right now I'm taking gummies but I want to convert to chewables. I feel like gummies have too much sugar. Idk. I'm just being paranoid.

Well, I ordered mine after trying a sample at my RD's office. The supplements I buy are the Bariatric Advantage chewable calcium citrate Vitamins with Vit D. I chew 6 chewables a day..which is like eating something to me rather than swallowing a log of a tablet. They come in chocolate(I like this), caramel (it tastes pretty good), lemon (my personal favorite..tastes like a tart starburst chew) and raspberry (these I wouldn't feed to the dog..they should go back to the drawing board on that one!). I order them from Bariatric Advantage's website. They come in 120, 90, & 60 counts. They will also send you samples as well. Best of all, the chews are sugar free!!! HOWEVER...their Protein shakes, in my humble opinion, are nasty, grotesque, and down right shameful ( yes ..that's how I really feel about them..lol) so if you decided to try their shakes...buy a bottle or two, not the bag to try them out first. Hope this helped! I guess it's just weirdo me tasting the "after taste". It's not bad enough yet to make me stop using them...

I use the big Bariatric Advantage sweet tart looking things, but they make me nausous for about 10 - 15 minutes. Nothing bad, just unpleasant. I think it is the rasberry flavor that one poster did not like either. I need to try some of the other flavors. I have been a bit lax in taking them on schedule, but so far my numbers are good. I do like the chewing better than another pill.

I tried the chewable sweet tart things too..and immediately threw up...I encourage you to try the calcium chews..they are like starburst or soft taffy squares, sugar free, & tasty. For me..I get a bitter after taste about 1 hour after eating them..I could be refluxing as well..but it doesn't feel like I am..oh well..I am weird I guess!

[mesaucedo 207]

Do you take the chewy bites or the actual chews?

Ahhhh Mesaucedo..I am calling it the wrong thing..it's the Bariatric Advantage chewy bites that I take..sorry..don't have the package in front of me..you are correct madam!

[Piplula 709]

I just went back and looked at the cinnamon chews that are the sweet tart kind..wonder if they are good...I love cinnamon...have to check into that

[mesaucedo 207]

Oh ok, I was just wondering because I am taking actual pills and they are becoming too much of a hassle to force down so I am looking for something else!

I like the Chewy bites..I just have that after taste 1 hour to the minute give or take a few in which I get a bitter taste in my mouth..I don't think anyone else is having it, so maybe it's me..I like them regardless of the after taste way better than the big Calcium chewable tablets. I would encourage you to try them! Call them up and ask them to send you some samples.< /p>

I like the BA caramel chews. They are like candy. The cinnamon is good to but why not have a "candy" treat?

[RissyRoe 25]

I take two of the Viactiv calcium chews a day. Once at lunch time and another at dinner since you can't have more than 500mg at a time. They taste like candy and I like them a lot.

I take 2 tums a day, my surgeon recommended it.
