Question: im wondering since milk has calcium and enzymes to help it absorb


Answers: im wondering since milk has calcium and enzymes to help it absorb

The best way to optimize your absorption of calcium is to be sure to get plenty of vitamin D. Be sure to get 400 to 800 units daily (it's harmful if you take too much, 800 units is plenty for anyone).

Milk is very nutritious. It's a good source of protein especially.

No, you need to take magnesium with calcium to make it absorb better in the body.

Calcium needs Magnesium, Vitamin C, & Vitamin D to absorb.

you body will only take what it needs. taking a supplement and then drinking milk wont "absorb" more. take the daily requirment. that's all your body can use.

Calcium is absorbed best with Vitamin D, not enzymes or other calcium. Because milk has insignificant amounts of vitamin D it is best to take a calcium supplement with a vitamin D supplement. Milk doesnt have very much nutritious value whatsoever.
