I have been prescribed calcium tablets by my GP this week due to having reduced bone density. These are the chewable ones with Vit D3 and take one tab twice a day.
I also drink Redbush tea and have been for a long time as it is known to have health benefits. I just remembered that Redbush also contains calcium as well and worried if it is safe to take both the supplements and continue to drink the tea. I'm concerned that I may be getting too much calcium?
I dont have more than a couple of cups of the tea each day max.
I think the tablets contain 500mg of calcium but dont know how much calcium is in the tea which is worrying me.
I am probably being silly and worrying about nothing but would really appreciate if anyone could help and put my mind at rest as I am concerned that I am doing myself more harm than good!
