Does anyone know where i can get the purest realest calcium carbonate? Its actualy real chalk. I realy need it!!! I crave it so bad...the chalky taste that i could just eat walls and dirt! I had calcium pills that i ate and they tasted good, but im out and the company changed them a bit and they dont taste the same anymore. I realy need it!!! My hubby has been searching the net but he had only found pure magnesium but i need calcium! I have tried taking enouph iron when a nurse told me its a iron defeiciancy and i took more calcium supplements, but im dying to eat something chalky! Its gotto be pure tho.

It is often related to an iron deficiency. Have your blood levels checked, but my midwife recommended I take PALAFER CF supplements, 2 x a day. While you may need calcium supplementation as well, you should only take 500mg of calcium carbonate 3 times a day. Injestion of too much calcium can cause kidney stones and other disorders and seriously harm you and your baby.
