    look at the Solgar Range on line for Cal+Mag Citrate-they're what I used and are fantastic quality. As for cranberry I just used whatever was strongest I could find! GL x

    I found a plain carlson's liquid calcium pill- NO vit D, but no magnesium- I take one in addition to my calcium magnesium (non liquid) because this was the best combo I could find that would be absorbable but no Vit D or zinc. The only problem is the carlson's is a gelatin pill- which raises testosterone but its soooo little I think its ok.

    Yes, that is a miniscule amount of gelatin in the pill. No worries.

    The cran that I like is the Sunkist brand and I have taken it from time to time to help with UTIs (I did not take cran for swaying).

    For swaying, have you considered using baby aspirin instead of cran? It does acidify you without the additional nutrients of cran.

    Just take one baby aspirin a day. More can cause bleeding.

    We can get 2 types here = see below, its a low dose aspirin. I have asked in another thread what dose people take as I wasn't sure if it really matters what strength you take i.e. 75 or 100mg?? I think I will take aspirin instead of cranberry? I also think you can buy it from supermarkets and that signature range does a budget version which should be fine as long as it doesn't have anything else added to it?

    Heartcare Aspirin 75mg
    Cartia 100mg Aspirin

    P.S I have found the Solgar calcium-magnesium pills. I am going to compare them to Calcifort (has vit D though which isn't the best for a girl sway??) and see what is better value. But as the Solgar pills are citrate based they may be better. Have you decided on what ca/mg pills you will take yet?
