Has anyone found this true with calcium supps. to give gas? >> Most calcium supplements are made from dairy based products. There are only a very few that are based from shells etc. REad those labels! >> Ok, I have the label of the Calcium I took it contains: Calcium Carbonate, Maltodextrin, <less than 2% of Cellulose, Croscarmellose Sodium, Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose, Magnesium Sterate, Polyethylene Glycol 3350, Crospovidione,Steric Acid Can anyone tell me if these is dairy oriented? I thought that's why I took a supplement. I read the label before purchasing and didn't catch any dairy ingredients I thought. I read labels for my highly allergic older son all the time. Thanks
