Ca++ and Vit D: Current guidelines recommend a total daily Calcium intake of 1000mg (including foods that contain calcium and whatever supplement you are taking) and Vitamin D 600 IU daily for males your age. Both increase a bit at age 70. These supplements can be a problem for people with certain conditions such as kidney stones. However, recommendations for any supplement can change from time to time.
