nomilktoday 83 Posted November 6, 2015 What strength of Calcium supplements are you all prescribed? Each day I have two tablets. Each has 1.25 g of calcium and 200 units of Vit D My Multivitamin has 400 units of Vit D I'm just wondering if I can cut the calcium supplements to 1 a day?

That would be based on your bloodwork and/or a follow up bone density scan. We all have different body makeup and you would be best to add or drop supplements and Vitamins based on what your body is demonstrating a need or deficit for.

IncredibleShrinkingMan 437 Posted November 6, 2015 I take the Vitamin Shoppe's calcium citrate, each containing 600 mg of Calcium and 1000 IU of Vitamin D3. My instructions say take 4 of these per day, with the additional 5000 IU D3 only tablet somewhere in the day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jazziminna 95 Posted November 9, 2015 Is there a good Calcium citrate supplement without the d3? I'm already doing 10,000 a day (have been for over a year) and don't need to add more. Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
