How Much Calcium Do I Need Every Day?

Okay, so to the final reason your multivitamin may not be safe and that's calcium. You take calcium? It's in my multivitamin and I take it as a supplement. You do? Yeah. It's okay. [LAUGH] I 'm going to go on this side by the fruit. No, we're going to look over this way.

Most people assume multivitamin ought to have everything in it. It should have small all mounts of boosting, again in the amount that you probably could have got in nature. But calcium is a problem because calcium actually binds to the other vitamins, and prevents them from getting absorbed.

Your multivitamins should have no more than 200 milligrams in it and you ought to get your calcium with a separate calcium magnesium pill at least two hours separately from this. Okay. Makes sense. So you can have a multivitamin, you can have up to 200 milligrams of calcium. Okay.

And then the real calcium which should be 600 milligrams of Calcium do you want to mix it with 400 milligrams of Magnesium or you get all bound up because calcium will give you constipation. >>Okay What do you think? So I am doing the right thing then. You are doing right thing.

Thank you very much. Thank you so much. I appreciate it. Be right back. Thank you Susan.
