Spring Valley Natural Calcium Tablets

[Natasha]

Hi Everyone!

I normally take a Calcium pill in the morning and also Chewable Fiber. Well I found a few days ago that my chewable fiber has cornstart in them, so I stop taking them. Well I just so happen to look at the Calcium ingredients and this is what i found:

Corn Starch, Maltodextrin, Croscamellose sodium, Coating (Titanium dioxide, dextrose, hydroxpropyl, methylcellulose, polyethlene glycol, sodium carboxymethyl-cellulose, mineral oil, sodium citrate, polysorbate 80 and dextrin) and Magnesium Sterate.

This doesn't sound too good.... Does anyone have any suggestion on better fiber and calicum vitamins?

Dr Atkins reccomends psyllium husks for fiber. I use flax. There are many ways to get a daily dose of flax in and it is very effective fiber source. Look in the recipe section for find induction friendly uses for the flax. I like the flax crackers and you can make it into a hot cereal. I know some take a flax supplement but I havent looked into that.
