Potential side effects of taking calcium supplements include constipation, bloating, and gas. High doses may increase the risk of kidney stones and, in rare cases, lead to hypercalcemia (too much calcium in the blood). It's important to follow recommended dosages and consult a healthcare provider before starting supplements.
