 I've heard about up cal calcium powder that you mix in with drinks. I do have some calcium powder but it sits at the bottom of the cup like sand and I can barely choke it down. Is it anything like this? Has anyone tried the liquid vitamins from BA?

 I tried a brand and really can't remember the name.... Metrix? Neutraceuticals? Something like that. Anyway, it tasted like ass & was very expensive. Sticking with the pill form of vitamins.

I love Upcal D.  If I put it in a drink and let the drink sit for a while, it does start to settle on the bottle.  But all I have to do is shake or stir my drink a little and it mixes right back in.  When it's mixed in, I can't even tell it's in there.  No taste and doesn't change the consistency of the drink at all.

 I've used UpCal D in the past, and yes, it does tend to sink to the bottom of the cup.  It is such a small amount used, I just put it in some nice International House Chai or something warm in the evening, and when I get to the last couple of ounces, I just swirl the liquid and down the remainder. 

Good luck.
