Do you take Calcium Suplement?

I take calcium supplements (sometimes, I'm not too good about taking my vitamins like a should XD) Be forewarned though, If there is a lot of sugar in your system, like from candies, or sodas, or whatever you body has a harder time taking in that calcium, and takes in almost none of it. so yeah :D hope your knee gets all better :D

I do take calcium supplements mostly because I am lactose intolerant.

I take calcium supplements and fish oil. Yes avoid the sugar as it also contributes to your problem. Also try taking fish oil, it helps a great deal with the joint pain aling with the glucosamine.

No, I do not take calcium, although it probably wouldn't hurt me any I shall stick to those lovely horse pills I take that I keep trying to get you to take

I've never taken any calcium supplements, ShellyB. We have Centrum Multivitamins but I rarely pop one into my mouth. I used to take iron pills when I was much younger. I don't really know if you're supposed to take these supplements by themselves or with other medications but you can always check the directions to be sure. I hope your knee feels better.

I have heard and my grandmother swears by glucosamine and chondriotin supplements. I did not feel any better when I took them. I have never tried calcium pills for knee or joint problems, it may be worth a shot.

I take supplements to help with menopause and joint pain. The calcium and vitamin D are taken daily at breakfast. Although the label states to take it 2x a day, I only take it once. My diet is rich in calcium so I really don't need to take a lot to supplement it. Glucosamine with MSM is something that I take for joint pain. It helps somewhat. My friend told me to take it. She was only 18 when she took it for her knee pain. It worked for her. I believe that if I had started it sooner my joints would be better off now.

I don't take a calcium supplement. I get enough of it in my diet. When I was pregnant with my daughter I took them thinking it would help her and ended up with calcium deposits in my legs. So I don't take them. I do take vitamin b and c though cause I find they help me feel better. So whatever works is what is best I guess.

Hi Shelly, I take Xcal, calcium tablets as a preventative really to oesteoporisis later in life. I am pleased to hear that you are feeling better already. I used to take three a day with each meal so I would perhaps take one with each meal with these. What does it say on the instructions? Huggles. Ellie :D

I don't take Calcium supplement, but I do take a multi-vitamin. Well, when I remember to take it. It is made for women and has extra calcium in it. I do feel a lot better and more energized when I take vitamins, I can just hardly ever remember to take them.

I used to take calcium supplements when I was pregnant but I think I need too take in now even f I a m not, my OB GYne said that the bones of the women stops producing calcium at the age of 21 (not exact on the details) but I what I am trying to say is that she recommends that I should start taking a calcium supplement at the age of 21.

Yes, because im lactose intolerant. I always have stomack upsets if i drink milk.

Hi I have been taking calcium caltrate for almost two months with the hope of keeping my bones healthy. At first I felt good but after almost two months I felt pain on the right side of my body. I consulted the doctor and explain to me that calcium accumulates salt in the body that is why I felt pain. He advised me to take natural calcium instead like leafy vegetables, apples and turnips. Why don't you try it. I did and you know I feel better now and stronger. Try it friend..

no

aside from drinking a glass of milk everyday i also take calcium supplement. most of the time, i do some heavy activities that require physical strength that my bones should be able to stand the weight. also, it's better to have good bone density as this point in time.

I haven't used any calcium suplements upto now. If some one who lacks calcium in their body, they have to drink milk daily. That is what I know. Milk is a good calcium suplement that comes naturally and with no side effects.
