FitTip: Take A Calcium Supplement--Twice Learn to make the most of this bone-boosting nutrient

Most people don't get enough bone-bolstering calcium from their daily food intake, and supplements offer an easy way to get this all-important mineral.

The bonus of calcium supplements is that most are made from calcium carbonate, which not only builds strong bones and teeth but also neutralizes stomach acid and eases heartburn.

But did you know your body is unable to absorb more than 500 mg of calcium at a time?

To get the greatest benefit from your supplement, take a 500-mg pill twice a day rather than a 1,000-mg pill once a day.
