Albion™ Chelated Calcium + Vitamin D3 Vegan (250mg Calcium/1000 IU)

Albion™ Chelated Calcium + Vitamin D3 Vegan from EssentialSeries is a food supplement based on calcium and vitamin D3.

We’ve formulated it with high-quality calcium combining calcium carbonate and calcium bisglycinate (a patented Albion™ blend), along with vegan vitamin D3, for optimal support of these important micronutrients. Balchem, the company behind the Albion™ patent, is synonymous with benchmark chelated minerals: raw materials with guaranteed quality, free from impurities, and excellent digestive tolerance. We chose this technology because it’s the best calcium available on the international market, paired with the best source of vitamin D3.

Boost your nutrition optimally with top-quality chelated calcium and vitamin D3.

Discover HSN’s unique Calcium + D3 formula

Imagine a synergy designed to take care of your bone health every day. Albion™ Chelated Calcium + Vitamin D3 combines the importance of calcium for bones with the support of a 100% vegan vitamin D3 Vegan, creating a daily aid that works exactly where you need it most.

With just two vegetable capsules a day, your body gets 500 mg of elemental calcium in a highly bioavailable form and 2000 IU of vitamin D3 that contribute to the maintenance of normal bones and teeth, as well as the normal functioning of muscles. All in vegetable capsules, no gelatin or animal-derived ingredients, designed for those looking for a supplement suitable for all dietary lifestyles.

Why Albion™ makes the difference

Advanced chelation for great tolerance

Albion™ chelated calcium comes as a stable chelate (in bisglycinate + carbonate form), designed to promote absorption and good digestive tolerance. It’s an ideal presentation to safely complement your daily nutrition over the long term with the best tolerance.

Balchem: guarantee of process and consistency

Balchem provides the quality ecosystem that makes Albion™ a standard in chelated minerals: ensuring maximum consistency in every batch, which we verify at HSN with each production of our products.

Vegan D3 and 100% vegetable capsule

Our vitamin D3 comes from lichen (not lanolin), so it’s vegan-friendly. Plus, we use vegetable capsules (HPMC), no animal gelatin, to keep the formula aligned with a plant-based lifestyle.

Calcium + D3: The classic and reliable support for bone health

The combination of calcium and vitamin D3 is a well-established classic for bone health. D3 helps with calcium absorption and use, while calcium provides the key structural mineral for bone tissue.

Who is this product for?

For those looking for an easy-to-integrate daily calcium with an excellent tolerance profile and guaranteed raw material quality (Albion™), and who want to complement it with vegan D3 for its synergistic effects, in a vegetable capsule. Perfect to support routines focused on bone health.

Recommended use and combinations by HSN

If you’re also looking for extra support, this product pairs perfectly with minerals like magnesium, which has properties linked to muscle tissue and bone health, and vitamin K, known for its role in bone metabolism. Together they form an ideal team to complement calcium and vitamin D3.

You can use this combination for as long as you want, since daily long-term use, at the recommended daily doses in the supplements you buy at HSN, is completely safe.

Frequently asked questions

Why does Albion™ mix carbonate and bisglycinate?

This isn’t something we decide at HSN; we don’t combine mineral salts ourselves. It’s the same Albion™ chelated calcium patent from Balchem, which combines a concentrated source of elemental calcium (carbonate) with a highly tolerated chelate (bisglycinate) for a balance between significant supply and comfort in daily use.

Is the D3 suitable for vegans?

Yes. Our D3 comes from lichen; the capsule is vegetable and we don’t use gelatin. Many supplements on the market combining calcium and D3 use non-vegan vitamin D3, making it harder to include in vegan-friendly supplement routines.

Can I take it all year round?

It’s a supplement designed for continuous use. So yes, although vitamin D3 supplementation is more important in autumn and winter when sun exposure is lower, you can use it all year round.

Does having D3 make it harder to combine with other vitamin D products?

The recommendation is based on consuming up to 4000 IU daily of vitamin D3. Since this supplement only provides 2000 IU, you can use other vitamin D3 products.
