What does everyone take for calcium or other supplements?

I take Thera Cal with Vit D 2000. I like that it is NSF certified, liked by some doctors and not "hyped" and full of unresearched results. I'm getting my blood done again later this month for PCP visit so I'll see how my levels are.

Hi Debra - I would just like to stress again that blood calcium levels are only a general indication of bone health.
A DEXA or similar test is required to actually measure the bone density in critical places. Spine and femur are typical, but if you have hip implants they can measure arm or wrist bones.
Just saying...
