Calcium Soft Chew

Elan Calcium Soft Chews: optimal absorption, pleasant intake

After bariatric surgery, your body absorbs less calcium, even though this essential nutrient is indispensable for maintaining strong bones, teeth and normal muscle function. A prolonged deficiency can lead to osteoporosis and muscle problems. Therefore, it is very important for your own health to properly replenish your calcium supply on a daily basis.

Meet our Elan Calcium Soft Chews - the tasty and effective way to maintain your calcium intake after your surgery. Thanks to the unique soft texture and fruity strawberry or fresh lemon flavour, taking calcium really becomes something to look forward to. The chewable tablets are soft, pleasant to use and do not stick to the teeth, ensuring a pleasant and comfortable intake.

Elan Calcium Soft Chews contain calcium citrate, the most absorbable form of calcium, and are enriched with vitamin D3 for optimal absorption. They not only help maintain strong bones and teeth, but also contribute to good muscle function as well as protecting against the formation of kidney stones.

Do you have trouble swallowing tablets or capsules? And does the taste or texture of standard chewable tablets not appeal to you? Then these soft chews are the perfect solution for you. Healthy living made easy! Get the most out of your extra calcium!

✔️ Soft, tasty texture
✔️ Does not stick to your teeth
✔️ Easily digestible
✔️ Easy to use

Available in two delicious flavours: fruity strawberry and fresh lemon!

Recommended daily dose
The amount of calcium you need depends on the type of gastric bypass you have undergone. Based on internationally recognised guidelines from leading scientific associations (ASMBS and IFSO), we recommend a daily intake of 1,200 to 1,500 mg of calcium.

As your body can only absorb a limited amount of calcium at a time, it is important to take it spread over the day. We recommend taking no more than 500 mg of calcium per intake. This gives your body time and space to absorb the calcium properly.

The image below shows the most common advice for daily calcium intake after various bariatric surgeries. This amount of calcium helps maintain strong bones and helps lower the risk of osteoporosis (osteoporosis)

Why calcium is not added to our WLS products

Elan's WLS products (Compass, Believe and Supreme products) deliberately do not contain calcium. We don't do that for no reason: calcium can interfere with the absorption of iron in your body. And proper iron absorption is essential to prevent anaemia.

Important for your own health

Do you take Calcium Soft Chew alongside your WLS supplements from Elan? If so, do not take them at the same time. Make sure there is at least 2 hours between both intakes. This will give your body a chance to absorb the iron optimally.

By cleverly distributing your supplements throughout the day, you help your body function better and prevent deficiencies that can cause long-term symptoms. A small adjustment in your daily routine can make a big difference to your health!
