"Jeana,
I have read from numerous sources and also was told by the dietitian at my clinic that you can only absorb 500mg of calcium at a time. So anything over 500mg in a single dose goes unused."
Actually, the reason doctors say to take vitamin D with your calcium is because it helps to break the calcium down so that more can be absorbed.
