How can a person with lactose intolerance obtain dietary calcium?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Consider Tums (calcium carbonate): Each Tums (calcium carbonate) extra strength provides 600 mg calcium. Two a day will provide you calcium need if you have no other source of calcium. Consult a dietician.
