balanced mineralsJan 22, 2010
By Jacx
"J.C."
I bought this to replace a dry chewable magnesium tablet we had been using. It has what I want with the calcium, magnesium, vitamin D and zinc but we are still trying to get use to it. It taste a bit like watered down jello with a chalky after taste.You can mix it with a drink. I have a hard time keeping the seal clean. If you get it on your clothes it does dry into a chalky powder. I am happy with the ingredients just not sure if I will stay with a liquid- personal choice.

Buy it from your local store!Jan 30, 2012
By Song Lin Almost 10 years as an Amazon's customer, I never expect my first review to be a negative one.
First, the product itself is not bad. Actually it is very good. My physician called the company and learned that they have a very strict procedure. They check for a thousand of things. The taste is also wonderful. My daughter loves it.
Here's the bad part: do not buy it from a seller you do not know; get it from Whole Foods or other local store that you trust. Price may be more expensive than Amazon, but ... hey we are talking about our kids' health. My daughter (3 year old) has complicated food allergy problem. She cannot take milk or any other products that contains milk (yogurt, cheese, ...). After compared with more than ten Calcium supplements at Whole Foods, I picked this one because of its Calcium, Magnesium, Zinc, and its flavor. I have been getting it from Whole Foods for several months. My daughter's condition improved a lot. A couple of weeks ago I bought two bottles from some seller on Amazon (for price of course). What a mistake! Suddenly my daughter's symptoms all came back. It took me more than a week to find out this thing is the reason. I bought another bottle from Whole Foods and made some comparison. The package looks very similar. After opening the bottle you can tell the difference. The real one looks white and the fake one looks yellow. The smell/taste are very different: one feels good and another one feels like smoke.
I heard that there are some organizations arguing that no food supplement should be sold online. Now I see the reason. Electronics may be fine. But for something you eat, buy from a local store not Amazon. Please do not be as stupid as me!

Great for infants & toddlersMar 15, 2011
By J. Andermann My daughter has a sensitivy to milk protiens, so this product is great for her. It tastes like orange jello, & goes great with her apple juice. With her being 18mos old, its important she gets a certain amount of calicum. This product lets me give her an accurate dose.
The lid does need some improvement. It doesn't have a secure fit, & needs to be cleaned off daily (or after each use). I would not recomend laying it on its side once it has been opened.

too thinMar 17, 2010

First bottle was to thick, you could not pure anything out, now it is just diluted water and after 7 days the bottle is gone between my two children. For the money you are getting thin water and I am not sure if the concentration of minerals is the same
