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.
High Intake of Supplements. If you take too many calcium supplements, this can cause gas and stomach upset as well. Do not take more than 2,500 milligrams of calcium a day if you are under 50, or more than 2,000 a day if you are over 50. This is the tolerable upper limit for the mineral.
