Calcium Supplement?

Here's another good article on calcium:

Calcium

After taking stock of how much milk, yogurt, spinach (Wah! 'til recently), etc I eat - I'm now only taking 500mg each day; usually after lunch. I can't take it in the morning because it messes with my thyroid meds.

Someone asked about vitamins pills - I take 1 Z-Bec tab a day. It was recommended to me on a Rosacea b-board.

I don't really like to take calcium supplements that much because it does not agree with me, but I do give some to my children.

Anyways I try and get as much calcium in my diet. A pretty usefull tool for measuring the calcium in your diet is here

I hope this helps

When I remember to take it, I take this Calcium + supplement by Rainbow Light. It's got calcium, magnesium, vitamin D, and a number of good joint supportive herbs.

I often forget to take it because I have to take it separately from my iron pills because it interferes with iron absorption. I always remember my iron first thing in the morning, but then have to wait 6 more hours before I can take the calcium. And by then my day gets so busy that I forget.
