GNC Calcium Citrate - Berries and Cream, 30 Soft Chews, Maintains Healthy Bones and Teeth

I came to this product after having so much trouble finding the Twin Lab chewable calcium citrate. I got the berries and cream flavor. It was good in the beginning when I started to chew, but the more I chewed and it dissolved I started to get a bad taste that continued on to become a bad aftertaste. I don’t know how to describe it. It’s not a bitter taste but it’s certainly not a pleasant taste. Another thing I didn’t like is that each chew has 4 grams of carbs. I need 1500 mg of calcium per day due to Bariatric surgery, so I would be consuming 12 grams of carbs per day. I’m trying to follow a Keto way of eating and would prefer it not to have so many carbs just for a supplement. It has corn syrup and sugar, and then they added Splenda. I guess the aftertaste would be worse if those ingredients weren’t there. I do applaud them for avoiding aspartame. I do like the fact that they used calcium citrate instead of carbonate. I also like the fact that one chew is 500 mg. It has some Vitamin K2 in it as well which is good. I’ll continue to take these until I find a reasonable replacement. I’ll just have to have something ready to eat immediately after these chews to hide the aftertaste. I’ve always had very sensitive taste buds. Probably nobody else can taste what I’m tasting in these.

I wouldn’t order these again as I was really put off by the taste. In addition, I think they are a bit expensive.

I'm giving these a 5 star because the flavor is good, it does have a slight chalky taste mixed in but that can't be avoided and it has been overall well covered up by the berry flavor. They are a little chewy and slightly sticky but overall great product and great way to get calcium citrate in.

I had to get these because I had bariatric surgery and now need lots of vitamins. I wasn't allowed to swallow pills for the first month so I bought these and although a little pricey for a 15 day supply (I have to take 2 a day), they did the job and taste good as well. They taste a little like a slightly chalky starburst. I will probably transition to a pill or chewable for cost reasons, but if you don't like pills this is a great alternative.

Tasty. Hoping they work for me. However - Pricey.

The taste very good. Has the texture of Starbursts candy. They have to be taken twice daily so a bag only last 15 days.

Taste good. Just had gastric sleeve so ordered to take after procedure

Oh. So. Better than those dry chalky disks that suck all the moisture out of your mouth. A little chewier than Starburst, and not quite as tasty as candy...but we don’t want candy!
