What is everyone taking to meet their Calcium goals?

I bought a 30 day supply of calcium chewable wafers at 250 Mg Per tablet. The NUT recommended 1500 Mg per day.

Each tablet makes me gag and I am supposed to choke down 6 of these a day? The tablets are also the size of 3 quarters stacked on top of each other.

Please tell me someone has found a liquid form?

Thank you

Try the Calcet lemon or chocolate chews they are a treat. Calcium citrate is used in them for better absorption.

i do a liquid calcium which is really simple and good tasting, there is a brand that can be found at wal-mart, or multiple brands at the Vitamin shoppe.

SO much simpler than adding yet another pill to my daily regimen...

Thank you both for the replies.

Lil Red, thank you for the suggestion. I will keep my eye out for those flavors. I currently have the wild berry flavor but it tastes like chalk.

Mi75,

Do you know the name of the brand you use? I have a bottle of D3 as cholecalciferol, but that only helps with absorption of Vitamin D and calcium, but does not provide the calcium requirements we need. Originally I was taking the D3 assuming it was the way to go. But my NUT explained that while D3 was great to take and would help my body absorb calcium, I still needed the calcium citrate to prevent bone lose. It took some doing but I was able to verify what she told me online. It was shocking because the D3 is marketed as a calcium vitamin. Which I suppose is true if you are a normal person eating Big Macs, but we aren't exposing our bodies to enough calcium to absorb for the S3 to help alone. Not to mention all the chewables I have seen contain D3 already so the US no need to take the stupid liquid D3 I bought.

If you have a calcium citrate in liquid I would be eternally grateful.

I really like the calcium chews from Bariatric advantage. Amazon.com has them, I chose the caramel and they do taste like a caramel candy. I take two a day...
