Vitamin D/Calcium Confusion-Need Advice page

[PrimalPica626]

Hello all you Primal People!

Got a question for you all. I was recently reading some information on this website regarding supplements when I noticed a comment on an earlier post (forgive me, can't remember where I saw this) that mentioned calcium is not as important for your body as vitamin D is for your body. Really?

On primalblueprint.com Mark has a vitamin D supplement that 1) is in credibly affordable and 2) has a great deal of vitamin D. ooo!!! Talk about a bang for your buck! I like this! However, I noticed that Mark's supplement only has 50 mg of calcium. That got me thinking, so allow me to pose a question to you all.

What exactly should you be supplementing yourself with in terms of building strong bones? I exercise primally and I know that helps with bone density and strength, but I am confused about this whole calcium vitamin D thing. What is more important? How much calcium do you need to take? Do you need to take calcium at all? Or is vitamin D whats really important?

Thanks guys! I'd really apprecaite the feedback!
