I will add to Donna's reply that calcium citrate is well assimilated and
capsules are better than tablets.

I suggest that she take a calcium/magnesium combination capsule(easy to
find) because calcium without magnesium is poorly assimilated. Taking it
with citrus juice or vitamin C will give an additional boost to assimilation.
