Question:
HELP FROM THOSE VITAMIN EXPERTS! I know RNY people should take calcium citrate...

My doctor has me on calcium lactate, natural milk free from twinlabs. I take 2 capsules at bedtime. they have calcium(from calcium lactate anhydrous) 200mg calcium lactate 1480mg these are the % for a serving which is 2 capsules. Is this being absorbed? I have trouble taking the pills and was going to try a kins from tropicaloasis.com..calcium magnesiun citrate..Is this o.k..    — Patricia R. (posted on July 22, 2002)

The only educated advice I can offer on the subject is that you need to make sure that you are getting plenty of Vitamin D with your calcium. Vit. D is vital to the absorption of Calcium. Hope this helps a little.
