Start your bone health program off right by getting enough calcium and vitamin D. If you're not getting enough calcium from food, then your body will steal it from your bones. And inadequate levels of calcium can lead to bone loss, osteoporosis and increased risk of fractures.† That's why it's important to consider the benefits of supplementing your diet with calcium and vitamin D. Adequate calcium and vitamin D throughout life, as part of a healthy diet, may reduce the risk of osteoporosis.* 

Caltrate® can help you move in the right direction because it provides 1200 mg calcium and 800 IU of vitamin D3 in the convenience of just two tablets! 

Remember:

  • More than 80% of women are not meeting their calcium needs through diet alone.
  • Prescription osteoporosis therapy does not replace your need for adequate calcium and vitamin D.
  • A healthy diet that includes calcium, along with a lifetime of regular exercise, builds and maintains good bone health and may reduce the risk of osteoporosis later in life.
  • Caltrate® contains advanced levels of vitamin D3 to help optimize calcium absorption.*

When dietary intake isn't enough, trust Caltrate® to give you the nutrients you need to help supplement your bone health program.* Just one tablet of Caltrate® twice a day can help you get the essential calcium and vitamin D3 you need. When you've got the right partner, you can feel it in your bones!
