Thanks for this info. I have been warned off calcium supplements by one of my docs because of cardiovascular concerns, but I believe she was thinking more of the 1,000-1,200 mg./day type supplements. I will check Algaecal to see how much calcium is included.

A lot of people take vit k to counter any problems with calcium being depostited in the cardiovascular system.
Below is a discussion post on what Inspire posters use in terms of Vit K. Vit K is thought of as a calcium director to put calcium in your bones instead of your cardio system. Vit k is even used in some countries as a osteoporosis treatment. Might ck it out.
There are research reports (see one linked below) and even several books written about it one is: Vitamin K and the calcium paradox
