Help!!!!!!!
I am looking for suggestions on calcium and vitamin D supplements. I have a history of not being able to tolerate them because they cause me severe stomach distress and constipation. When I was 3 months out from surgery, the dietician started us on Citrical Petites. I took these for a couple of weeks and then the same thing occured. I tried Viactive chews, same thing happened. Right now I am depending on foods that contain these supplements. I would like to take them so I don't have to worry about it if I can't get all the foods in. Does anyone know of a brand that is easy on the digestive system?????
Thanks, Phyllis


Hi Phyllis-
I use Chewable Caltrate(cherry, orange, & fruit punch flavors). It says it has 600mgs of Calcium, 400 IU of Vitamin D. It works good for me; but I realize everyone is different.
I also take two Chewable Tablets of Benefiber a day (one mid morning and one at night). They have an orange creme flavor.
Good luck; I hope you find a good combination for you.
