Chewable Calcium - with or without food?

We recently received this question:

"I take Cooper Complete Chewable Calcium. My question is may I take them at any time of the day or night, and do I need to take them with food?"

Our Chewable Calcium is in the carbonate form, so it’s preferable to take the product with your meal. Calcium carbonate is not well absorbed by people with reduced levels of stomach acid, so taking this supplement with meals improves absorption because of the stomach acid generated to digest the food in the meal.
