How It Helps

For strong bones, proper levels of calcium, along with weight-bearing exercise, are a must. A calcium citrate supplement is a great solution when a diet doesn’t provide optimal calcium levels. In addition, research indicates long-term, daily calcium intake is required for optimal bone health.

While Cooper Clinic recommends calcium consumption through food, it is often difficult to consistently reach this optimal level. When diet alone is not enough, augment with Cooper Complete® Calcium Citrate supplements. Each tablet provides 250 mg calcium citrate. Based on your age, Cooper Clinic recommends the following daily calcium intake:

• Women 19-50 years: 1,000 mg
• Women 51 and older: 1,200 mg
• Men 19-70 years: 1,000 mg
• Men 71+ years: 1,200 mg

As part of a healthy diet, strive to include two to four servings of low-fat and non-fat dairy per day through food sources. In addition to dairy, calcium is found in soybeans, enriched grains, and dark leafy greens such as spinach, kale, turnips, and collard greens. There are also many calcium-fortified foods in grocery stores – everything from orange juice to English muffins.

Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body. The blood calcium level may be normal even in individuals who do not get enough calcium in the diet. And to provide adequate calcium for the muscles and heart, the body will utilize calcium from the bone, reducing bone density. Therefore, it is essential to discuss your calcium needs with your physician to ensure you consume (through food, fortified foods, and supplements) the optimal levels of calcium needed.

Cooper Complete Calcium Citrate supplement is designed to be taken in conjunction with one of the Cooper Complete multivitamins, which already includes desirable levels of magnesium and vitamin D. For optimal absorption, Calcium Citrate supplements should be taken first thing in the morning and last thing at night, so they do not compete with calcium that has been consumed through diet.

As a dietary supplement, adults take two (2) tablets daily or as directed by their physician or health care professional. 120 tablets per bottle. Vanilla-flavored easy swallow coating.
