Known as Australia's No. 1 vitamin brand, Swisse has grown steadily and rapidly in recent years. As of June 2018, Swisse has a market share of 18.6% in the Australian vitamin and mineral supplement (VHMS) sector, making the brand an undisputed leader in the Australian market. Benefiting from China's overseas shopping boom, Swisse has become the No. 1 brand in domestic health care product e-commerce channel sales in 2015. With the completion of Biostime's acquisition of all shares of Swisse, Swisse's multiple sales channels in the Chinese market have also been gradually opened. Despite the acquisition, Swisse will remain an independent operating model and its products will continue to be manufactured locally in Australia.
Swisse's dietary supplement products have always been few and fine, and its calcium supplement product has only one calcium citrate - Swisse Calcium Vitamin D, which is suitable for a wide range of people and is affordable, and has received many praises. Like other calcium citrate, Swisse Calcium Vitamin D is just as mild, non-dependent on stomach acid, does not cause gas or causes constipation, and does not need to be taken with meals.
In terms of dosage, Swisse Calcium Vitamin D also has outstanding advantages, each calcium tablet contains 333.33mg of calcium, and the recommended dosage of 2-3 tablets per day is also reasonable. Users can adjust the dosage according to their own conditions, and the general population with a rich and diverse diet can take one tablet a day, and those who are deficient in calcium can basically reach the recommended amount of two tablets a day. Due to the high vitamin D content of this calcium supplement, it is generally not recommended to take three tablets per day, nor is it recommended to take other supplements containing vitamin D.
Swisse Calcium Vitamin D 150 capsules are about 120 yuan, which is more cost-effective in calcium citrate, and is comparable to calcium carbonate, which is generally low in price, so it is worth buying.
