Which one is better and what is the actual difference? I think my doc said to take Citrate, but i found the BESTEST ever Calcium Carbonate at Trader Joes... soft, chocolately and chewey!! HA... Any suggestions?

Calcium Citrate is better absorbed.

My doctor said calcium citrate is the best. We can absorb it better. I do have great news though, I get my calcium citrate in a chewy bite and they are to die for! I love the chocolate (it is like a caramel texture) and the raspberry is great (like a Now N' Later candy). They are Bariatric Advantage brand and I buy them off of Amazon. You should contact them and ask for a sample. You can get your calcium citrate in a chew, it is great.
