Can anyone point me to research that shows why only about 500mg calcium

concrete than that simple statement.

Sorry, Dave. No good answer for your question - but just a reminder that

there's plenty of research that shows that unless Vit D levels are adequate,

Calcium won't be properly absorbed either. With approx 60% of the US population

VIt D deficient, no wonder we're seeing so much osteopenia/porosis.

I think the main concern is the binding of other nutrients that need absorbed

for balanced nutrition.
