Hi ya'll,
I just thought I would post this here, as I THINK (although I can never be quite sure 'cause of how unpredictable my tummy can be!) this has really helped me. I have taken some calcium supplements (caltrate) in the past, and have found that they have helped SOMEWHAT. Well, recently I got a different kind because it said it was really well abosrbed or something like that.. Anywho, the brand is Mega Cal (I'm in Canada, dunno if it's a worldwide brand or not..) and it is 650mg softchews with Vitamin D, and I take one in the morning and one after my evening meal. I have found that lately the urgency I get hasn't totally cleared up, but it has made my D basically gone. All my stools have firmed right up.. to the point where I think it could run the risk with some people - IBS-A people probably - really C. I love it, though. Just thought I would share! Cheers! --Steph
