I have read that calcium negates the effectiveness of the garcinia cambogia. Is this true, because I see that yours has calcium in the ingredients.

That's a great question! Calcium inhibits the build up of fat, however in large amounts it MAY inhibit Hydroxycitix Acid, which is the content provided by Garcinia Cambogia. Some people have seen great results with Garcinia with Calcium, others haven't. In order to cater to all of our clients, we have presentations of Garcinia with and without Calcium. :DIf you have any other questions please feel free to give our Certified Sports Nutritionists a call at 866-807-5066, we'll gladly answer any of your questions :D

no - calcium and potassium which are salts are helpful for the absorption of the HCA which is an acid - an extract- from the rind of the fruit.

K.D. Kirkpatrick: I have probably read some of the same articles you have regarding garcinia cambogia without calcium. It may work or it may not. I had ordered my garcinia cambogia with calcium before I read those articles. However, so far I have had positive results with the garcinia cambogia with calcium I am taking. Great carb controller. Have little to no desire for carbs.

In my experience, with or without calcium has worked. Since I have used the product with calcium I have lost 8 pounds over the three weeks during the holidays. I did eat and drink what I wanted but I see no difference with or without the calcium. It has worked for me.

It did for me, I didn't lose any weight because the calcium did in fact negate the effectiveness. I switched to the Garcenia Cambodia without the calcium, so we will see how this pans out.

I have read that also. I was very careful to pick a product that did not contain calcium. After I read your comment, I looked on the bottle again. I was unable to find calcium any where. Mine is the same as shown.I haven't had much luck with it. In the comment section, it helps some people and not others. One comment said to be sure and take it on an enpty stomach, at least one half hour before eating. I'll make sure that's how I take it, from now on. So far and I've taken quite a few, all it does is make me ravenous.

I'd quit the calcium supplement as we usually get enough from our food. Too much calcium without magnesium can cause big problems.

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

I felt like this garcinia cambogia was safer because it does not contain caffeine. I lost a clothes the first month and seems now to maintain weight without overeating. The main thing is to take it regularly...500 mg 3 times a day is what I took. A more aggressivedose is double, but I did not want to get a drastic result. There is also pills with 800 mg. Also I know the 60% or 65% of the citric acid iswhat is at the center of either weight loss or weight maintaining...along with the chronium included in this brand. Good luck!

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

As with any supplement, I would contact your doctor if you have any health issues or concerns. I have researched Garcinia Cambogia and it is supposed to be 100% all natural from a plant that grows in Asia. It has been consumed for years over in Asia and has been put in the form of a supplement to help with weight loss. If it is a natural fruit product, with no additives, it should be okay to take, but again talk with a professional if you have any concerns. As I have been taking this supplement for close to a week, I have not gained or lost any weight. I have though, had more energy and seem to be staying up later than usual.

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! « I ordered the Pet Tabs with calcium by mistake once. We usually use the AF formula.

I am looking at the label and all it says the ingredients are is Calcium 55mg, potassium 75mg garcinia cambogia extract . And it says vegetarian capsules but not what kind that they are. I hop that answers it. I would not take it unless I knew which vegetables since soybean is a vegetable.

Yes, I started taking Garcina Cambogia and have gained over 10 pounds in the last month. I was disappointed. I stop taking it and I am still wanting to gain weight. It actually made my stomach and intestines be in pain. A lot of excessive gas with this product.

I did some research that indicated that calcium actually prevents the absorption. It didn't matter. This product did absolutely nothing for me...a total waste of money.

I may be incorrect but the %Daily Value is based on a 2000 calorie diet. The total mg. of potassium, calcium & chromium is 450 so subtract that from 2000 = 1550 left. The Garcinia Cambogia amount is 1500 mg., which is 75% of the total % daily value of 2000. Makes sense to me logically but I'm not a chemist!

As other people have commented, there is NO calcium in this product. It is a magnesium product, containing 350 mg. I don't know how it affects other people; however, I can say that it WORKS for me!!

Is there a specific ingredient that you are looking for or looking to avoid? Here is the link to Genesis Today so that you may view all of their information including the nutritional panel. Can I be of more help to you than that? http://www.genesistoday.com/products/garcinia-cambogia

Agreed - kind of hard to buy a calcium supplement that doesn't bother to list the calcium content :)

We totally agree! Since supplements work differently for everybody, we can't really tell you which of the supplements would be more beneficial to you. However, our Garcinia Cambogia 180ct. is our most popular presentation. If I were you, that would be the first one I would try :)Let me know if you have any other questions, I'm here to help :D

Hi Toni,You can simply google Dr. Oz garcinia cambogia and loads of information comes up.As for my husband, who tried it out, he did not lose an ounce. I have noticed that Dr. Oz is a little bit fickle, and seems to have endorsed a number of supplements which do nothing. The biggest weight loss my husband noticed was to his wallet. Always remember about any of these seemingly magical products...if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is!! Good luck.
