Re: Calcium and Stomach Upset. First of all you need to be taking calcium citrate not calcium carbonate. Calcium carbonate will definitely cause you stomach upsets. You also need to be taking magnesium with the calcium. Magnesium helps the body absorb calcium and also helps to prevent the stomach upsets and constipation.
Take this supplement with food to aid in absorption. In some calcium supplements based on calcium carbonate, Vitamin D is used as an addition to aid in absorption. Vitamin D is needed for the absorption of calcium from the stomach and for the functioning of calcium in the body.[3] [4] Calcium citrate is more easily absorbed (bioavailability is 2.5 times higher than calcium carbonate), easier to digest and less likely to cause constipation and gas than calcium carbonate.itamin D is needed for the absorption of calcium from the stomach and for the functioning of calcium in the body.
