Calcium Question

Can I just use Tums or Rolaids for my calcium supplement or should I buy like Caltrate or the equivalent? I'm not knowledgable on the subject and neither is anyone I know....

      I take the little Calcium 'candies'. Theyre delish and what doc told me to take. Feels like I'm having 2 candies a day.

    Are those the little choclate-y ones I've seen advertised? Vitaactive or something like that.... It sounds like that might be worth it... :-)

    I take the Caltrate chewables. There are 3 flavours. They have 1500 mg of calcium and only like 5 calories.

    I take Caltrate Plus which has Vitamin D as well. I use my vitamins as a treat: Caltrate plus (chewable), multi vitamin childrens chewable with choline, Vitamin D guummy, and Vitafusion fiber gummies.
