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.
Other forms of calcium in supplements and fortified foods include gluconate, lactate, and phosphate. Calcium absorption is best when a person consumes no more than 500 mg at one time. So a person who takes 1,000 mg/day of calcium from supplements, for example, should split the dose rather than take it all at once.Calcium supplements may cause gas, bloating, and constipation in some people.ther forms of calcium in supplements and fortified foods include gluconate, lactate, and phosphate.
