I refuse to obsess over which supplement is best. The proof is in the pudding. If my leveks of Ca and Vitamin D are where they shoukd be, I will stick with my inexpensive brand. I do not have the money to spend if there would be no benefit.

You may want to consider seeking out the minerals in your foods. Not only calcium but all the other minerals. They are in our bones. Nuts are a great source too. And it is far less expensive ( and more fun to eat) that way because you get the whole food that is loaded with minerals that will metabolize and go where they are needed in your body.

Another member posted this article in the last month or so. The gist is "And when it comes to absorption, the science points in one direction. Studies show that all calcium salts absorb a few percentage points above or below 30%."
