I've had good experiences in the past with NOW supplements, so I thought I'd give this calcium carbonate powder a try. We use it primarily with homemade soymilk, although sometimes we'll also mix it into smoothies and protein shakes. The serving size is 1 teaspoon, which packs a whopping 1200 mg calcium (120% RDA). The powder is silky, lightweight, and chalky-looking; it has no scent or flavor. It absorbs fairly well upon mixing, although obviously you'll achieve more thorough results if you use a blender or food processor than if you manually whisk it. (It isn't perfect, though, so I'm taking off one star for that.) I add enough of this powder to get 300 mg calcium per serving (1/2 cup) of soymilk (so 600 mg, or 1/2 tsp, per cup). That amount seems to work well for us, as we don't notice a difference in the texture, flavor, or creaminess of the soymilk. A 12-ounce bottle of this stuff lasts us about four months, and we use 4-6 tsp each week. I would definitely recommend this powder to those who want to increase the calcium content of their homemade beverages and other foods.

happy to find it online as I could not locate it at any local health food stores and needed it for my home made kidney diet for my older dog with kidney problems. Good price too even with shipping.

What I was searching for
Much of the Calcium out there contains shellfish shells which I can't use due to allergies. So glad to have found this product. It is a component of my homemade toothpaste.

Good product as promised
I use this product daily in a glass of milk and it works better for me than taking calcium supplements in pill form. I plan to continue buying the product and highly recommend it. Read more
