Evacal tablet alternative

is there an alternative to EvacalD3 tablets that doesn’t contain aspartame sorbitol and sucrose ?

I googled sugar free calcium and these came up - onl y thing is it doesn’t seem ti say sugar free on the box but I can’t see any of the things you mention on the ingredients

There are probably other options though.

I don’t know if there is a reason for you to take such a high calcium dose (a full day from tablets) but personally I get calcium from food and take a vitamin d3 capsule in olive oil. Taking vit d3 in an oil filled capsule means the “not so clean fillers” are not needed. I get mine from Amazon, not my favourite place but it is easy to get from there. It is possible to find calcium/d3 combinations in oil there or other from other direct sites. I’m afraid I’m not a fan of H&B as their tablets, or at least the ones I’ve looked at, all appear contain fillers.

Those are manufactured by Vitabiotcs - just sold by H&B - and loads of other sources. I don’t often buy from H&B - and I don’t buy vitamin / mineral combinations as I like to choose how much and the quality of anything I take - for example I don’t want calcium carbonate and I don’t want cyanocobalamin or fillers.

I take oil filled D3 capsules and an algae based calcium capsule to top up my dietary calcium plus all sorts of other things - however the OP asked for an alternative to EvaCal that didn’t contain aspartame etc. and I think that the Osteocare possibly fits the bill.

thank you I asked my pharmacist if you can take too much calcium any thoughts ?

I wouldn't take more than 1000mg a day but your kidney will clear out any excess if working properly.
