Interesting discussions on the different vitamin C derivitives. I have been using ester c because I get cold sores in my mouth if I use any other kind. I have been concerned that this may not be the best form. I think it is a valied point that we are overdosing ourselves with forms of calcium that our body may be throwing off in kidney stones, calcium deposits where we dont want them etc etc. Does anyone have suggestions on which form is best to take if a person has problems with acidic system. One helpful adjunct to calcium supplementation is to include magnesium with it to help the calcium get to the bones. Does anyone have suggestions for a high quality mineral that includes absorbable forms in the proper ratio of calcium,postassium, and magnesium?

Do not forget phosphorus: calcium metabolism is dependent on more minerals than just calcium, potassium, and magnesium. Even sodium has an important role to play, but the "big 3" minerals in calcium metabolism, are calcium, magnesium, and phosphorus. Without a proper calcium/phosphorus ratio, mammals can't properly use calcium. The conventional wisdom seems to be that humans get plenty of phosphorus and don't need to worry about it, but I wonder if that is really true.
