Liquid Calcium Liquid filled calcium softgels release their calcium as soon as the softgels dissolve. Calcium supplements are a good way for everyone to keep up with busy lifestyles and unhealthy eating habits. Calcium is one of the many essential minerals to keep the body healthy and strong. Calcium can be found in many different types of foods, but without proper diet and exercise your body can become calcium deficient. Calcium is an important factor for developing and maintaining strong bones and teeth. Osteoporosis, bone fractures, loss of teeth, and other health problems can occur without proper calcium intake. Vitamin D is necessary for absorption. Get as much calcium as possible from food. Make up any shortfall with supplements. Buy supplements by price. Calcium carbonate is cheapest. If it gives you gas, take smaller doses or switch to another form. Look for "USP" on the label. Take your supplement with meals to aid absorption. Take no more than 500 milligrams in supplements at a time. Keep taking the supplements. If you stop taking them, any gains in bone strength will fade. Get enough vitamin D, which is essential for bone health, especially if you're over 50. Normally your body makes enough D when it's exposed to a little sunlight, but after age 50 your body produces less. Get at least 400 IU a day (that's the amount in a quart of fortified milk or most multivitamin/mineral pills), 800 IU if you're over 65. Some calcium pills also contain D. If you are taking thyroid hormones, the antibiotic tetracycline, corticosteroids, or iron pills, talk with your doctor or pharmacist. Calcium can interfere with these and some other drugs or minerals.
