NOW Foods Kid Cal 100 Chewables

NOW® Kid Cal is a great-tasting chewable designed to help children get the bone-building nutrients their growing bodies need. It combines highly absorbable calcium citrate with magnesium and vitamin D — a trio that works together to support healthy bone development during the critical growing years. Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body and the primary structural component of bones and teeth, where about 99% of the body's calcium is stored. It's also essential for muscle contraction, nerve signaling and normal blood clotting. Because the body cannot make calcium and continually draws on its reserves, an adequate daily intake — from diet and, when needed, supplements — is important for building and maintaining a strong skeleton throughout life.* Because many children don't get enough calcium from their diets, Kid Cal offers a fun, easy chewable way to help fill the gap and support strong bones and teeth as they grow.*

Cautions & interactions

As with any supplement, talk to your doctor before adding this product to your routine if you are pregnant or nursing, taking prescription medication, or managing a health condition. Keep it out of reach of children, store in a cool, dry place, and don't exceed the recommended serving. If you take a multivitamin or several supplements, review the combined amounts so you don't unintentionally double up on the same nutrient. Calcium can interfere with the absorption of certain medications (including some thyroid medications and antibiotics), so separate them by a few hours and check with your doctor or pharmacist if you take prescription medicines.

Allergen information: soy and coconut oil powder.

Caution: Keep out of reach of children. Consult your physician if your child has any medical conditions or is taking any medications. Xylitol is harmful to pets; seek veterinary care immediately if ingestion is suspected. Learn more about pet safety.
