Oh, whoops, it is not citrical that I have....it is CalMax, which is a

powder. It has a little bit of a taste which I do not like, so was

wondering if it could just be mixed in with the protein shake. Again,

thanks.

My calcium is in capsule form. I just open the capsule and mix it in with

my protein powder as I make my morning shake. I've also added it to

scrambled eggs, tuna, etc. I get it from www.Vitalady.com.
