hi im wanting to purchase some calcium citrate as i have read that its great for vulodynia and ic.......the problem is that apparently you cant take ones with added vitD which cuts out most products i have finally found one in New zealand where i live.........i understand that citrus acid is a nono, it dosnt have that but it has these in the tablet agent are these safe? i fiqurethe mag stearate is fine and aslo the gum and silicon but the stearic acid (just the word acid freaks me) any idea, i will also do internet search on these additives.

Have you asked your doctor? If not, I think it would be a good idea.
