Wanted to use them early on but couldn't handle the sugar alcohols. Bought large bottles of chewable everything that I ended up giving away. Tried a liquid calcium as well with the same result. So just got used to the multiple large pills... Would suggest buying a small amount until you know if chewables will work for you. Good luck!So I'm already not liking all of the Citracal pills... 7-8 per day. At our class they let us try a chewable calcium that was good. I see it has palm oil though (which I hate for many reasons), but is that going to block some absorption? Here's the label:

Thank you for this! I feel bloated almost daily - figured it was just part of the surgery? But reading that Calcium Citrate might be the cause gives me some home.I use Jarrow Bone Up MCHA (3 per day formula). I take six to get 2,000 mg and I should take more because Dr K is recommending 3,000 mg of calcium daily, but 2,000 is all I can do now on most days. The are big but capsules so no problem choking them down. The main reason I use them is that they don't bloat and constipate me like Calcium Citrate does.
Thank you! YES, the Bariatric Advantage that I just ordered are very, very expensive. They are much cheaper on the site you shared. THANK YOU!I shopped around pretty hard for the least expensive place to buy the chewable calcium. This the least expensive place i found. www.vitacost.com and here is a coupon for 12% off. 12SPRING it expires on Tuesday
