Country Life Maxine for Women, 60 tabs within category: Calcium

99% of the calcium in our bodies is in our bones. But that other 1% is important, too! Without the calcium in our hearts, they would cease to pump; without the calcium in our brains, they would cease to function. In a word: death.

Don't worry, that's not going to happen. Because if the calcium in our blood gets low, we pull additional calcium from our bones. Which means that the key to keeping calcium in our bones is to keeping calcium in our blood. Which means perhaps the most important thing you can do in terms of your calcium intake is to get it regularly, to keep the blood levels up. (This doesn't necessarily mean pills. Many foods are very rich in calcium).

When it comes to supplements, there are literally dozens of different kinds of calcium. It's enough to make your head spin! Here's a quick guide:

Calcium carbonate is the form of calcium found in chalk, Tums, and many inexpensive supplements. Its advantages? It's cheap, and you can fit a lot of it in a pill. It's disadvantages? As an antacid, it may compromise digestion, potentially leading to a number of problems, not the least of which is constipation. Also we need adequete stomach acid to absorb it. If taken on an empty stomach, or by someone using acid-blocking medications, it will absorb poorly.
Calcium citrate is considered a more "premium" form of calcium. You can fit less of it in a single pill than you can calcium carbonate, but it absorbs better and does not impair digestion. Although less well known, calcium lactate, gluconate, aspartate, malate, and chelate are all probably as good.
Calcium hydroxyappatite (MCHA) is very absorbable and fairly economical. It is highly recommended, but it is derived from cow bones, so not suitable for vegetarians.
