Avoid Calcium Carbonate. There are much better calcium options available.

Hello Stevenator,
Phew!, I think Gabrielle and myself and others are relieved of what you propose for calcium.
I think everyone eats this.
And today I just received my calcium citrate capsule.
Cordially.

Calcium Carbonate is Limestone
Calcium Citrate is the Calcium Salt of Citric Acid.
Calcium Carbonate is very difficult to digest. It requires much greater stomach acids to break down. As we age, we have less & less stomach acids. Calcium Carbonate contributes to the calcification of our artery walls and increases the chance of heart attack & stroke by 30%.
Calcium Citrate is absorbed into our bodies immediately.
Calcium Citrate is made from Lime Juice.
Calcium Carbonate is made from Rocks.

Calcium carbonate neutralizes stomach acid and causes constipation.

I feel like I’m ever so slowly getting bigger. Whatever it is, I’ll take it. I’m hoping to switch to injections in the coming year. Tomorrow marks 29 months of HRT with 4.5 years of PM prior.
