2500 mg max is what I've read. It should be hard to get that. Plus it can be hard to absorb if youre taking capsules.

Sorry to hear that, man. I thought our body will flush the excess calcium with the urine. After reading the posts of fellow posters, it looks like weight lifters should take more calcium than average people. I have been taking only 1000 mg tabs/day, but now I thinking about taking around 2000 of tabs a day.

Too much calcium especially from caps will greatly increase the chance of stones.

Too much calcium in general is just bad, like anything else. I had a cousin that died due to kidney failure. He would drink like a gallon of milk or more a day.
