Not all Calcium types are equal
So disappointed that calcium carbonate, calcium gluconate and calcium citrate are all lumped together under "calcium". Without knowing the percentage of each that is in this product I cannot determine the amount of elemental calcium that actually is available to be absorbed. Lack of this informatioin affects all aspects of this product for me.

Calcium plus Boron contains Titanium Dioxide
I've been using several Solgar supplements happily for decades including Calcium plus Boron. However I just realised that Solgar's Calcium plus Boron contains Titanium Dioxide as an artificial colour. I wish I'd never taken it. The following is taken from Wikipedia. Titanium Dioxide is used in: * paints, varnishes, paper and plastics, printing inks, fibers, rubber, cosmetic products * pure titanium, glass, glass ceramics, electrical ceramics, metal patinas, catalysts, electric conductors The exterior of the Saturn V rocket was painted with titanium dioxide. In 2021, the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) ruled that as a consequence of new understandings of nanoparticles, titanium dioxide could "no longer be considered safe as a food additive", and the EU health commissioner announced plans to ban its use across the EU, with discussions beginning in June 2021. EFSA concluded that genotoxicity — which could lead to carcinogenic effects — could not be ruled out, and that a "safe level for daily intake of the food additive could not be established" A 2021 French research project referenced on Wikipedia said "In conclusion, these data indicate that TiO2 is able to alter the four compartments of IBF and to induce a low-grade intestinal inflammation"
