Evidently they now say taking calcium supplements are more detrimental to bone health for us older gals, and it's best gotten via food for SLOW release.
Has anyone else heard any of this?
But is it low carb "safe"? Does it have a lot of natural sugar - or carbs?

Calcium supplements are falling out of favor as it turns out they don't work. Protein is actually a vital nutrient, and so is magnesium (chelated form) because it's an imbalance, not a lack of calcium, which contributes to the condition.
Probably D3 with K2 is your best supplement.
Weight lifting is another good ploy to try.
