Subject:
Calcium Carbonate vs. Citrate

I have just received results from my first bone density test and, sure
enough, my scores were low.  I must immediately begin taking calcium, but
here's the dilemma:

I tried a simple formula calcium supplement derived from calcium CARBONATE
and had a spastic colon type reaction.  Then I read that calcium CITRATE can
be more easily digested by some people, so I went shopping for some.  From
health food store to supermarket to drug store chain, I found it nearly
impossible to obtain a definitively gluten free, dye free, sugar free and soy
free calcium citrate supplement.

Here's my question:

Is there anyone out there who has had better luck digesting calcium citrate
or carbonate?

Has anyone had any success obtaining a gluten free, dye free, sugar free and
soy free calcium supplement?

Thank you, in advance, for taking the time to respond.
