Try supplementing with equal parts calcium and magnesium, or with 1 part magnesium to 2 parts calcium (recommendations vary). Calcium can be constipating; magnesium can have a laxative effect; so the two balance each other out. Try to find a supplement that combines the two, preferably in a high-quality form such as calcium and magnesium citrate. (It'll be expensive, though!)
