It is the other way around. Calcium atoms ARE present in bones.

Why do you have to eat, if you'll take a c*ap later!?

Taking calcium together with magnesium supplements are your best bet.  Magnesium aids in absorption.  Milk has calcium but unfortunately your body needs a lot of calcium to digest the high protein content in milk so milk actually makes you calcium deficient.

From what I've been told by a Biophysicist...if the suppliment is in tablet or caplet form, not gel or capsule, the body runs the digestive process too fast for it to dissolve enough to absorb more than 40%. If your intestines are backed up with garbage and not eliminating properly that is even lower %. Powdered or liquid form are the best way to take a suppliment for absorption, capsule or gel is next. Tablets and caplets have added ingredients that hold them together making it harder to dissolve.

Imagine your getting over a stomach bug. You can't throw heavy food into your system right away without a reaction. You stomach didn't produce an acid for awhile because there was nothing to digest. Do this, drink some gatorade to restore electrolytes, drink broth, eat some toast with a little butter. Don't go full on meals and go easy....little bites as well.

You have it right. Your body needs some water to help digest your food. For one thing, the food we eat has vitamins and minerals. Some of those are water soluable and need some watery substance to digest them properly. Especially if you are taking a multi vitamin with food.

it isn't good, i believe it messes with your stomach cause of the acid or something, i've seen this question before.

The enzymes in the stomach require a certain pH for the amino acids in them to work properly. So, when the pH is optimum, the amino acids are in their correct ionic state. This enables the enzymes to function properly in digestion.

Because when you have gastric by pass you cant just think just by doing that, you will lose weight. You have to eat right and still exercise in order for it to work. If you do nothing and still eat like you did before the surgery then your stomach will stretch back out and it wont work. Thats why.

Take digestive enzymes before every meal, Charcoal and Aloe Vera also help with gas.

calcium carbonate\n\nSubstituting the carbonic acid with any other organic acid will yield other forms of commerically available calcium tablet ingredients:\n\ncalcium citrate (from citric acid)\ncalcium lactate (from lactic acid)

It has been said a chromium deficency can lead to it. Chromiun is processed by stomach acid and use of antiacids can prevent your body from absorbing chromium. Once you have it though there is no cure but there are many ways I know of to slow its progress.

the acid in your stomach is too powerful so it will die...good thing for stomach acid eh?

Yes, but it won't supply enough calcium to be significant.\n\nThe solubility of calcium carbonate (limestone) in fresh water is 6.69 x 10-5 moles CaCO3/Liter. That’s means that only about 7 milligrams dissolve in one liter.  If the water has some dissolved carbon dioxide in it the solubility is slightly higher. You could not drink enough water in a day to supply your basic daily requirement of calcium. \n\nThe daily recommended requirement for calcium is about 1000 milligrams for an adult under 50 years. \nhttp://www.osteoporosis.ca/english/About%20Osteoporosis/Nutrition/Calcium%20Requirements/default.asp?s=1

*Just eyeing this one a moment* First off, it is lippopolysaccharide (a cytotoxin) and helicobacter pylori (a nasty bacteria)...\n\nSecond, why one wants two substances that could cause gastric cancer is beyond me other than a means to cause harm...\n\nThird, it is rather obvious by the very fact it is mispelled and that you do not realize such things cannot be bought on the open market; leads me to believe you are not capable of dealing with such items in a safe manner...\n\nFourth, if you were capable you would know how and where to procure them...\n\nFifth, not even gonna suggest how one might get them to you or anyone else publically for the good of humanity as a whole...\n\nNow for those who might wanna know what this is about, read the following...\n\nSoon after H. pylori was linked to chronic gastritis and stomach ulcers a correlation was soon made between the bacteria and gastric cancer. The initial evidence were simple ecological studies that displayed that there was a higher incidence of gastric cancer in populations that contained a higher number of H. pylori infections. Soon after, the link was firmly established and the World Health Organization labeled H. pylori a group 1 carcinogen in 1994. The major factor, which definitively linked H. pylori to cancer, was the fact that it causes chronic inflammation, which is widely excepted as a known cause of cancer.\n\nI. Causes of H. pylori induced cancer\n1) Inflammation/Oxidative Burst\n2) Mutations in Gastric Physiology\n3) Cell Proliferation/Cell Death\n\nII. Outcomes of H. pylori induced mutation\n\nI. Causes of H. pylori induced cancer\n\nInflammation\n\nInfection of the gastric mucosal layer causes chronic inflammation. The inflammation is in response to both host immune and bacterial factors. The bacterial factors include cytotoxins such as VacA and lippopolysaccharide (LPS).\n\nFor more read the article linked below...
