Calcium with Vitamin D3 Ultrafine Powder

Rep-Cal Ultrafine (fine grind) is an excellent calcium source for all reptiles and amphibians, scientifically formulated from 100% natural, human-grade, phosphorus-free calcium carbonate derived from oyster shells, with added Vitamin D3 to aid in calcium absorption. Calcium deficiency is a major dietary problem in captive reptiles and amphibians, and maintaining the proper calcium-to-phosphorus (Ca:P) ratio of 1.5:1 in the diet is just as important as ensuring adequate calcium intake. The problem in most cases is an improper Ca:P ratio, not a lack of calcium.

The Ca:P ratios of common cultured food items are alarmingly poor, with Crickets at 0.13:1, Meal Worms at 0.06:1, Wax Worms at 0.08:1, and Pinky Mice at 0.89:1. Using a calcium supplement that also adds phosphorus makes no sense, as an adequate Ca:P ratio can never be achieved.

Rep-Cal contains only 100% natural, human-grade, phosphorus-free oyster shell calcium carbonate as its calcium source. The "Ultra-fine" powder is readily absorbed and sticks to any insect or food item, preventing metabolic bone disease. Rep-Cal has been recommended by veterinarians and zoos around the world for over 30 years, and it is made in the USA.

The fine grind of Rep-Cal Ultrafine ensures that the calcium is easily absorbed by reptiles and amphibians, providing them with the essential nutrient they need for strong bones, healthy shell development, and proper muscle function. The addition of Vitamin D3 further enhances the absorption and utilization of the calcium, ensuring that captive animals receive the optimal nutritional support.

One of the key advantages of Rep-Cal Ultrafine is its phosphorus-free formulation. Phosphorus is a common issue in the diets of captive reptiles and amphibians, and an improper Ca:P ratio can lead to serious health problems, such as metabolic bone disease. By eliminating the phosphorus, Rep-Cal allows caretakers to easily maintain the ideal 1.5:1 Ca:P ratio, promoting excellent bone health and overall well-being.

The reputation of Rep-Cal Ultrafine among veterinarians and zoos around the world is a testament to its effectiveness and quality. For over three decades, this calcium supplement has been trusted by experts in the field to provide the exceptional nutritional support that reptiles and amphibians need to thrive in captivity. With its combination of pure, natural ingredients and precise formulation, Rep-Cal Ultrafine is a reliable choice for ensuring the optimal health and well-being of these fascinating animals.
