ViactivCalcium Vitamin D Supplement Soft Chews Milk Chocolate Chews Calcium Dietary Supplement For Bone Health 100 Count Multi

These taste good, but eating too many is actually dangerous, so CONTROL YOURSELF (angry face). This actually brings me to the main, perhaps surprising point of my review: I used these as environmentally conscious RAT POISON. Yeah, you read it right. Do a google search. Vitamin D is crucial for human health, but many other animals can't process it and it will cause internal bleeding and kill rats or mice. The charming but run-down 1920's building I live in has holes - in the attic, the crawlspace, the heating ducts. I tried several methods to trap them or exclude them, but without luck. City rats are smart to traps, and to peanut butter bait, so after some research, I settled on this. Before I even had a chance to bait traps with it, they got into my room and got into the box. So, I scattered some in the crawlspaces and closets. It disappeared over a period of days, and after a week, so did the rats. It's been several weeks with no new signs of them.

I had a severe case of osteoporosis in my bones, particularly the spinal cord. Of course, I took the bone-building drug for 4 years and it worked. Afterward, my doctor advised me to take calcium pills, which I detest. So for the next few years, I chewed calcium chews instead. Recently, they retested me and found that my bone density was still doing very well and I had lost only a small amount since I finished the bone-building drug. I personally attribute this to these calcium chews. They taste yummy and I like both the chocolate and caramel chews. I look at them as my daily treat!

I bought Viactiv calcium chews because my doctor recommended it. I take two after dinner and it's like a little treat. They have a delicious chocolate flavor and honestly they taste like candy. They kind of melt in your mouth and remind me of Tootsie Rolls or Turkish Taffy. Two supplies the daily need for calcium and vitamin D for older women. I highly recommend Viactiv if you are like me and often forget to take your calcium pills, or don't like taking pills. This stuff is delicious!

I am supposed to be on calcium supplements and for the past year I have simply avoided taking them. The pills are too big, and the gummies are opaque and not flavored like gummies- they're just gross. Anyway, I was increasingly concerned about ignoring my doctor's orders and the effect it would have on my bones, so decided to try these. They are delicious! The texture and taste is like a piece of fudge! And no wonder-- there is milk chocolate in them! But at 15 calories a chew, the flavor is a treat! I have to force myself to stop at 2 pieces a day. I wish I'd tried these a year ago, but better late than never.

These made me nauseous and I had stomach pains and pooped a lot. Apparently certain forms of calcium can do that but also Vitamin D can cause diarrhea. Not sure which one was affecting me, but I had to quit taking them after two days. They’re soft chews, not hard like a chocolate bar- it’s like eating a crappy tootsie roll that’s very soft. I feel like this is more a me problem than a Viactiv problem, so I’m not mad about it but decided to do the review to warn you.
