There is calcium citrate in the product. The label reads "0.5% Min.-1.5% Max." Sorry. Good luck in finding something that works.

We are dedicated to providing the best products to our customers. Based on additional lab studies, research and client testimonials we believe that eliminating the calcium and chromium from our formulation will provide increased results. We did offer calcium based on what doctor Oz said, but here are a few case studies that say other wise.http://www.anh-usa.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/garcinia-cambogia2.pdfhttp://www.nuvocare.us/assets/pdf/Super%20CitriMax_Research%20Overview.pdfHope this helpsIsland Vibrance

We do it because we like catering all of our customers needs. Although half of our clientele loves our Garcinia Cambogia without Calcium, there are a lot of people who like it with the Calcium. Therefore, in order to please everybody, we have made the Garcinia Cambogia 400ct with added Calcium. I'm so sorry :( However, we have Garcinia Cambogia 60ct., 180ct. and 180ct (75% HCA) without Calcium. So, you also have an array of counts to choose from :)

On the package it says it contains potassium gluconate and does not say anything about having calcium. Hope this helps

The bottle just says Calcium from calcium citrate. I think its different than calcium carbonate which is derived from many sources. I bought it because it IS calcium citrate. I take calcium in both citrate and carbonate.

Neither; it is ascorbic acid (food additive E300). Bulk supplements apparently does sell calcium ascorbate (E302).

The bottle I got last month had no Calcium in it what so ever. If people are saying they did it could be possible they ordered something different.

Yes it has calcium and potassium. Dr. Oz mentions this on his website: http://blog.doctoroz.com/is-this-right-for-you/garcinia-cambogia-hca

I ordered the Pet Tabs with calcium by mistake once. We usually use the AF formula. It probably does work and I'm sure it had calcium in it because they were much harder to break in half for out 15 LB doxies. (They get 1/2 a tab with each meal -2 times a day). The one question to ask maybe would be: ..What type of calcium is it? My Dr has told "me" to get calcium "citrate" as it is easier to absorb. Ask your Vet and check the ingredients. I will say we LIKE Pet Tabs and the were originally recommended by our Vet. Buying them on Amazon is a cost effective way to get them. Especially true if you are a Prime member!

Good for you checking before you take something. I went onto the website www.Solgar's.com and read all about their standards, very rigorous. All of their products are made in NJ but ingredients may come from all over the world. They do have a great testing program. Would encourage you to check them out. I love the calcium.

no, it does not. On the ingredients listed, calcium does not show up, that is why I bought it

Marisa, thank you for your question and your interest in HUMANOLABS products. While it is true, as another reader pointed out, that there is not much room left when each capsule contains almost 800mg of garcinia cambogia. However, this is not the main reason why we do not add supplemental calcium or potassium. Our garcinia cambogia is extracted in a manner that leaves it in a water soluble form. It is this factor more than any other that determines bioavailability. We have seen claims recently that warn consumers to avoid products that contain calcium as they purportedly render the active HCA useless. This is not the case. In fact, in virtually all of the clinical trials a standardized form of HCA, a calcium-potassium salt of (-)-hydroxycitric acid was utilized. Moreover, according to www.drugs.com and referencing garcinia cambogia "some salts used in commercial products are water soluble and bioavailable, and are a good source of calcium (495 mg) and potassium (720 mg)" Bottom line, bioavailabilty is very important but it has nothing to do with avoiding calcium and everything to do with getting a water soluble form of garcinia cambogia extract which as a result will also contain calcium and potassium salts. Sorry for the lengthy explanation but there is considerable misinformation out there on this topic and we hope that exchanges like this will help eliminate some of the confusion.

Yes it does contain calcium.. From thee investigating I have done. It should have calcium and potassium. Also atleast 60%HCA. NO binders or fillers, NO artificial ingredients. Made in USA.Should have Companys name address and phone number on the bottle also. I hope this information is helpful..

I read that when taking collagen supplements, one needs to be wary of getting too much calcium. I did not see the amount of Calcium listed on the label either but I am wary of taking this and my daily calcium supplements.

I am not sure about calcium. You would have to read the label. I liked the product very much

Hi Ronnie. I am really not sure why that would have changed. The bottle I have does not show calcium. I know that I have never experienced anything like that and after several reviews with the same problem and reading other articles regarding the Garcinia Cambogia many people had kidney related issues. It's not worth it to all and I wish I would not have even tried it. Good luck I hope that helps and I am sorry I was not familiar with the Calcium removal.
