Can I take calcium supplements with a glass of milk and still expect good absorption?
My husband read somewhere that taking both at the same time prevents full absorption. I have since tried to do a web search and haven't found much info on that. One university health website even recommended taking it WITH milk in order to boost absorption.
I've only ever heard each opinion once, so now I'm not really sure what to believe. I prefer to take them with milk if possible but I am worried about getting peak absorption since there is a strong history of osteoporosis in my family.
