I would like to know if a person can take too much in supplements when trying to grow back bone density. I am 75 and am taking 2 tablets of healthy woman bone supplement - 00 mg calcium-280 IU vitamin D per tablet. My doctor has started me taking Miacalcin nose spray. Should I also try to get more calcium from foods like tofu and yogurt?

You CAN take too much calcium and vitamin D. I would recommend that you don't take more than 1000 mg of calcium and no more than 600 IU of vitamin D per day in supplements. Higher amounts of calcium can cause gas, constipation and kidney stones. Also, work hard to increase your calcium intake from low fat dairy foods, tofu and green vegetables.
