Calcium

Looking for calcium supplements in NZ? This collection includes Gold Health options that contain calcium as part of daily nutrition support, including senior-focused formulas and value bundles. Use the guide below to understand what calcium does, how to choose, and what to check on labels before you buy.

Calcium is an essential mineral best known for supporting bones and teeth, but it also plays roles in normal muscle function and nerve signalling. A calcium supplement can help top up intake when your diet falls short, or when your needs are higher. The right pick depends on your goal, routine, and how you prefer to take supplements.

How to choose

Your goal: Decide whether you want everyday nutrition support or a more targeted calcium top up.
Labelled calcium amount per serving: Compare the amount of calcium per capsule or tablet, plus how many you take per day.
Serving size and convenience: If you prefer fewer pills, look for options that fit an easy routine.
Bundles vs single products: Packs can be better value if you already use multiple daily supplements.
Diet and lifestyle: If you already get plenty of calcium from food, you may only need a smaller top up.
