About Calcium supplements: Calcium supplements can come from animal sources in the form of ground bones, eggshells, fishbones, crustacean shells or coral. They can also come from algae, or from inorganic mineral sources like dolomite, marble or limestone. You can get highly absorbable supplements from any of these sources, depending on how they are produced. However, if you are vegan you will want to look for a calcium supplement that is certified vegan, to be sure it doesn't contain animal products.
