@joanly The SILK brand milks have added calcium carbonate (like Tums) so are they any different from getting calcium from supplements? Is there any food-based natural calcium in any of them?

I agree with this and believe they have little or no food source natural calcium. Since silks milk are made from nuts and grains, and coconut. But I don’t believe it would be worse than taking a supplement.
They really could use some serious research into calcium sources and what helps the body utilize them better. This is such an active topic among those of us on endocrine therapy.
I have to assume that there is more than one way to the top of this mountain.
After years of taking assorted bone meds and being bumped from the roster at the oncology infusion room in favor of those needing chemo. I am back to taking calcium and vitamin D supplements and praying for the best.
