Study suggests heart risk from calcium supplements

So much for the supercarrot.
"Older women who take calcium supplements to maintain bone strength may have an increased risk of heart attack, researchers in New Zealand said on Tuesday...

'This effect could outweigh any benefits on bone from calcium supplements,' researchers led by Ian Reid of the University of Auckland wrote in the British Medical Journal."
At least you will see well while having your heart attack.

Any real researcher knows that calcium should be taken with vitamin D and magnesium!!!This was not done and many of these women had lowered(lack of hydrochloric acid) digestion issues.This is common.
