Are calcium pills good or bad, bought at fry's without any doctors receipt?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Calcium supplements: A young healthy male should be getting their calcium from dietary sources - milk, supplemented drinks and foods. 1300 mg is the recommended daily amount. I wouldn't think of it as good or bad... But rather, are calcium supplements appropriate for you.
