ISO chewable Cal/Mag supplement

post #1 of 6
Thread Starter 
...for my 4 year old DS. He's refusing all liquid supplements, but is happily taking his chewable multivitamin each day (which is very low in calcium and other minerals). He has multiple food allergies (dairy, gluten, soy, plus others) and is on a restricted diet. What we've been using for calcium up until now is no longer available.

Thanks so much for your help!

Not chewable, but just found this one: http://www.iherb.com/Bluebonnet-Nutr...2-ml/9797?at=1

Sounds like it tastes good, which might work.

Thanks, Amy. This looks good; I like that it also contains zinc and copper, but we can't do carrageenan. Too bad!

We've been taking Pioneer chewable calcium magnesium dark chocolate flavored - yummy. I bought it on Amazon.

I get all of my supplements online, as I find I save a lot of money that way. I checked the site I use, and they do have a chewable calcium that also has magnesium and vitamin D. It's not specifically a children's vitamin though. Don't know how much you give your son, but you could take a look at it. Maybe if you switch brands or flavors your son will take a liquid cal-mag? I just know those are easier to adjust the dosage if you end up using an adult supplement. The one I use is pina colada flavored, and I know I used to give me daughter a different one that was grape. She took it just fine, but she was pretty young at the time. Good luck finding something he'll like!
