My post was, which calcium supplement is better for Celiacs...Calcium Carbonate or Citrate?  Here are the responses:

Two people take Viactive Calcium Chews (carbonate)
Two people take Caltrate 600 (carbonate)
One person takes antacid tablets (carbonate)

Two people take Calcium Lactate (not carbonate or citrate)
One person eats green leafy vegetables
One person takes Calcium L-theonate
One person takes a combination of carbonate, citrate & chelate

The majority (10 in all) said that Calcium Citrate is the best for Celiacs because it's easier to absorb.

Hope this helps somebody else.  Jane in Maryland
