What it is

The main mineral in bone. Absorption is best at 500 mg or less per dose, so a single 1,000 mg tablet wastes about half of itself.

What it helps with Moderate

Maintaining bone alongside vitamin D, particularly after menopause. Food first, then supplement only the gap.

Effect on hormones No human data

No effect on sex hormones. Blood calcium is governed by parathyroid hormone, which adjusts itself.

Weight and fat loss No human data

Does not reduce fat.

Sleep No human data

Nothing to do with sleep.

Other health effects Strong evidence

Bone, teeth, muscle contraction and nerve conduction.

Dose and ceiling

Commonly used: 500-1,000 mg per day

2,500 mg/day for ages 19-50 and 2,000 mg from 51 — IOM. This app warns at 2,000, the number that is safe at any age. Counts food as well.

When to take it Take with food.

Caution The WHI trial found 1,000 mg/day of supplemental calcium with vitamin D over 7 years raised kidney stone risk by 17%. There is also a contested signal that supplemental calcium, unlike dietary calcium, may raise cardiovascular risk. Remember to count chewable antacids — 200-400 mg each.

Interacts with medicines Significantly reduces absorption of thyroid medicine — separate by 4 hours. Also reduces quinolone antibiotics and the HIV drug dolutegravir.
