A heads up if you’re taking calcium supplements.

A Swiss study finds people who take them were 86% more likely to have a heart attack than those who took no supplements.

Researchers also found no evidence that eating lots of calcium-rich foods protect from heart attacks, and it had no effect on stroke risk.

Experts say calcium is an important part, but too much is not necessarily a good thing.
