Calcium carbonate is generally regarded as the best form of calcium to reduce diarreah. I see that people with irritable bowel syndrome seem to prefer the Caltrate Plus formula, taking at least two a day: http://www.ibstales.com/caltrate_plus.htm http://www.irritable-bowel-syndrome.ws/caltrate-plus.htm
As with many things related to CML, not everything works the same for each of us. I have found that plain calcium carbonate helps me. I know women who tried taking calcium carbonate for bone health but the constipation was too bad for them to continue. Here is another article on taking calcium to reduce diarrhea while traveling (although related to intestinal viruses): http://www.webmd.com/content/article/73/88806.htm --Trey --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ [CMLHope] A support group of http://cmlhope.com ------------------------------------------------- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CMLHope" group.
