How far apart should calcium be taken? I am trying to get the 1500 to 2000, but don't know how often to take it?

I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong, but we can only absorb about 650mg at a time. Space evenly throughout the day and don't take within 2 hours of iron (or a multi that has iron in it).
