We want the best when it comes to our food - clean, organic, and non-GMO. Why would we want anything different for our vitamins and supplements? We are fanatical about food. We’re different that way. Whether we’re making a vitamin, or a probiotic, or a protein powder, we always start with real foods and these (foods) provide our formulas the power to be their best. We’re different that way, too. The synthetically created, chemical “breakthroughs” from huge commercial laboratories around the world are not for us. As fanatical as we are over what goes into our products, we are even more obsessed about the things we keep out of them. We hate those synthetic chemicals that most companies use to make their products. This stuff makes machines work faster, and helps factories churn out super-sized containers at higher “efficiency.” Well, while the other guys spend their time preoccupied with their efficiency, we’re uncompromising about your health. Slow it down, make it by hand, grow it in rich organic non-GMO soil with enough sun, air, water and time for it to be its best. Harvest it when ready. Treat it with care. Turn it into a power-packed nutritious food supplement. That’s what we are about.

Bioavailability matters!
5 Stars
Bioavailability matters!
Everywhere you look, there is a new health supplement being introduced to the market. So much so that it can be an impossible task to choose one that is best for you and your body. After many years of trial and error, I have settled on Garden of Life supplements as my daily supplementation. For my Calcium and D3 supplementation, I use this product twice daily.Why is this product great?Bioavailability. It doesn't matter how much of a certain vitamin or mineral is added to a supplement if your body simply isn't going to absorb it. Take for example, Magnesium. Many Magnesium supplements use Magnesium Oxide as the main ingredient. Did you know that only a measly ~5% of ingested Magnesium Oxide is absorbed by your body in this form? It's important to purchase supplements that are actually going to be absorbed by your body, otherwise you're just throwing money away. Whole food vitamins, used in this product, have great bioavailability because they are in a form that most resembles the food you eat throughout the day. This form allows your body to digest and absorb much higher amounts, giving you the health benefits you were looking for before buying the supplement.Added benefits.All of the Garden of Life products contain probiotic and enzyme blends that further increase the digestion of the vitamins and minerals found in their products, the food you eat, as well as promote a healthy gut microbiome. I can't think of many other companies that add probiotics to their products.Usage.The only potential downside is the amount of capsules required for the daily suggested serving size, 4 capsules per day. While this may seem inconvenient (which it can be), it is usually a good sign when a company avoids putting an entire daily serving into a single capsule or pill especially when there are so many ingredients involved. Using a single pill or capsule forces companies to cut corners and compromise on dosages, this supplement does neither. Additionally, multiple doses allows your body to get a constant stream of vitamins and minerals throughout the day instead of all at once.Overall, this is a great Calcium supplement with high bioavailability and the added benefit of digestive enzymes and raw probiotics. I would definitely suggest giving this supplement a try.
