But some calcium supplements can also add unwanted carbs. Viactiv® Soft Calcium Chews, for example, contain four carb grams per chew, primarily from corn syrup, high fructose corn syrup and sugar. Each tablet of regular TUMS, however, provides 200 mg of calcium, with less than one carb gram.

LOL. Ya think? Hmm..."Soft calcium CHEWS"...that are SWEET. This sort of obvious reporting always gives me chuckles. Any LCer thinking straight (and I know we all have mental lapses at times, but really) would figure that out, even without reading any labels. Besides, we all read labels. I DEFY that woman to find me even ONE LCer who has been stalled because of consuming those chews under the assumption that they are just calcium. |
