Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Calcium citrate is the preferred supplement for individuals with a history of anorexia nervosa due to its superior absorption. Calcium carbonate should not be taken at the same time as iron supplements as it can impair iron absorption. The cost difference between the two supplements is minimal and not a determining factor in selection. Calcium citrate is the preferred supplement for individuals with a history of anorexia nervosa due to its higher bioavailability compared to calcium carbonate. Calcium citrate also does not need to be taken with food for optimal absorption, making it a good option for individuals who may have difficulty consuming enough food. Additionally, calcium citrate does not interfere with iron absorption, which is important for this client who is already supplementing with iron.
