Good afternoon @leeosteo. Unfortunately, I do not personally know the answer to your question about calcium. I had real digestive difficulty with a daily supplement and ended up with high calcium. So I talked with my PCP and here is what we figured out. She gave me a list of other ways to ensure sufficient calcium. I tried some of the suggested foods and was concerned about the reaction to other medications. I also found the sugar-free plain yogurts to be pretty tasteless. So my current solution is simple: Chobani makes a Zero Sugar "flavored" yogurt with calcium. I then add Fairlife non-fat milk with 30% of the daily dose and recommended fruits. I end up with at least 60% of my daily calcium goal and find the rest in dinner with salmon and high-calcium veggies.
PS: I sneak in iced yogurt bars for a treat in the evenings. Don't tell anyone!!!!!!!
Hope this gives you a headstart. What have you been using?
