You have to be very careful with liquid calcium brands. Most of them do not calculate the elemental amount for you on the label, so you have to do it yourself.

For instance, here's the section on my blog about one liquid calcium choice:

BlueBonnet Liquid Calcium - This is NOT a good choice. Notice the label says "Calcium Citrate" which means you need to multiply by 21% to calculate the actual elemental amount of calcium you'll get. Two tablespoons (1oz) is 1200mg calcium, but after the calculation, you see that a dose is actually only giving you 252mg calcium citrate. So you'd need 6 doses (12 tablespoons) per day to reach your minimum 1500mg calcium citrate requirement.

I can't stand any type of chewable pills especially now that I don't have a desire to eat let alone chew. I use REVIVA liquid calcium citrate from Costco. It's FANTASTIC!!! Taste like a berry smoothie. Very easy to take on it's own or mixes easily with yogart, ice cream, or protein shakes.
