Why Calcium here is only 12% of DV?

Here is an answer from Global Healing Center's website itself: Why does the IntraCal label state that it contains 1100 milligrams of calcium orotate per serving but show that this only satisfies 12% of the Daily Value (DV) for calcium?There are a few helpful facts that we must know in order to understand how the recommended daily value is calculated. The first is that the DV for most adults is 1000 milligrams of elemental calcium per day. The second is to understand that the key term is the word "elemental." This describes the calcium separately from whatever it may be bonded to in your supplement. It is a term that is used regarding the daily value because it can vary depending on the substance to which calcium, or any other mineral for that matter, is bonded. An important thing to remember is that the DV will always be calculated based on this weight regardless of the total weight of the type of calcium compound. In this case it shows us that the total weight of calcium orotate (calcium plus orotic acid) is 1100 milligrams and that amount contains roughly 120 milligrams of elemental calcium, 120 mgs. elemental calcium/1000 mgs. calcium orotate = 12%. It is important to note that there is no DV for calcium orotate or for any other specific form of calcium, i.e. calcium carbonate, calcium aspartate, calcium ascorbate, etc., but only for elemental calcium.The part of this equation that is frequently overlooked and that explains why IntraCal is made using a form of calcium containing a relatively low elemental weight is absorption and utilization in the body. This is crucial because dietary supplements are taken for the positive influence they may have on the body and not simply for the exercise of swallowing a pill. Calcium orotate is generally considered to be the most absorbable form of calcium available with an estimate of approximately 90% absorption rate from the GI tract. Compare this to an estimated rate of 5-50% for many of the more common forms of supplemental calcium, and it is easy to see that simply taking more elemental calcium may not be the answer to supplying the body with adequate usable calcium. This may truly be a case of less is more; that is, of course, as long as the less is the more efficient and bio-available form that your body can readily use.

How many mg per capsule is this?

AS of 2020, the bottle says 2 caps are 90 mg "elemental" calcium. The elemental portion is the part absorbed by the body. It takes 790 mg of calcium orotate to get 90 mg of elemental calcium.

I've been taking this for quite some time but with the most recent bottle, I have noticed it has a really bad taste/after taste. What changed?

Sorry to hear about your concerns. The Calcium and Magnesium supplement has not changed. If you would like to contact us directly we can try to work with you to gather more information about the bottle you have.

I thought a mature woman should have between 1200 - 1500 mg per day and only 500 mg at a time. If it’s 550 mg per cap why would you take 6 per day?

I would not take that much. I would take only 1100 mg total per day of this supplement that is represented as being more readily absorbed than other forms of calcium. I agree 6 caps would be a LOT. I did not take 6.
