I dont know where this information came from and I guess you can find anything you want to hear on the internet, but I can assure you that the type of horse tail that is in Absolute Calcium is not toxic. It is high in organic silica which is what gives the skin its elasticity. The egg shell of reptile eggs are very high in silica. I gave my pregnant daugher a formula which contained a much higher amount of horse tail than absolute calcium does. She took it from day one and untill the delivery with no ill effect. The proof is in the pudding. Absolute calcium has and will reverse the effects of the lack of calcium when all other forms have failed. No other forms of calcium can or will make this statement. It has only been available for a short time and most people are slow to change from the popular brand, but those who have used absolute calcium on reptiles that need calcium bad know there is nothing like it any where at any price. We went through the same thing with Parazap in the beginning. We expected to run into the same misinformation with absolute calcium as we did with Parazap and with the same out come- that being that it is a far superior product to anything else available.
