About Caltrate
With a comprehensive range of Calcium and Vitamin D supplements, carefully developed combination formulas as well as our Caltrate Joint Health product with UC-II® collagen, Caltrate is here to be your partner in strength and movement.
Calcium & Vitamin D
Less than half of Australian adults get their daily recommended intake of calcium, and calcium cannot be produced by the body so it must come from our diet.1
Caltrate’s range of calcium and Vitamin D supplements contain calcium carbonate, a more concentrated form of calcium2, as well as vitamin D3 to help optimise the absorption of calcium in your body.
