A member asked:
I have a little...ostepenia and low d. but calcium is 10.5. should i take multivitamin that has calcium?

Vit D and Calcium: I would recommend supplementation with 1000 mg of calcium and 1000 IU of Vit D daily. The only potential harm with Calcium supplementation is slightly increased risk of kidney stones.
