Guest guest Posted March 18, 2003 Report Share Posted March 18, 2003 I think that Calcium is probably one of the most important supplements to take, especially because of the bone density issues in HIV. However, I also tend to agree with JB that coral calcium is probably no better than any other calcium.

Any ideas or experience? Thanks Mooney has done extensive research on Calcium. He said that Calcium Carbonate is "the most abundant natural form of Calcium and the most logical form of Calcium for the majority of people to use". He also feels that Coral Calcium is simply a new fad version of Calcium Carbonate. Here is a report he wrote, which was posted to this group a few months ago. < http://www.supernutritionusa.com/calcium2b2002.pdf > Glenn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
