Calcium deficiency: could i eat an apple with calcium supplements or it'll ruin it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Calcium supplements: Are best taken with food, as they're less likely to upset your stomach. Apples are fine. Make sure you're getting sufficient vitamin d3 as well -- at least 2000 units/day (or even more if you're deficient) and also check to make sure magnesium is normal.
