Everyone should not take a calcium supplement. Should I think most people? Yes I do think
most people should because I don't think, especially if you are lactose intolerant or
do to religious beliefs you don't have milk and dairy products much, that can cause issues
with your calcium intake, so I would say yeah. I would want you to take a calcium supplement.
You don't really want to go more than about 500 milligrams per tablet because your body
really can't absorb that much more than that. I don't recommend a calcium carbonate, but
that's the cheapest one. If you go look at your product that you may have at home, odds
are it's a calcium carbonate. Or if they're really smart, they'll just say elemental and
they won't tell you the format it's in. You want a more see, calcium carbonate being chalk
it doesn't really absorb well by the body because calcium is absorbed best under acidic
conditions. I would look for a calcium citrate. That's a much more bio available or bio absorbable
form of calcium, a little bit more expensive, but I think it's a better way to go. In terms
of calcium for everybody, most people I do think it would benefit. Everyone, like I said,
knows that it's good for your bones, teeth, what have you, but it's also very, very important
and critical for muscle contraction and things like that. So calcium is the way to go.
