    Thanks for the information on calcium supplements! I can never quite remember the medical consensus on that.

      Thank you Anne. This argues you should get your calcium from your diet combined with vitamin d which helps absorb the calcium. But every body is different and I always believe you should talk to your doctor if you’re unsure. Bone health is so important especially in women in perimenopause and menopause.
