What form of calcium is most easily absorbed BUT doesn't cause constipation and bloating?

So, I have been taking New Chapters Bone Strength is what I think it is called. And though I have had a lot of problems with other forms of calcium, I do not have problems with this. I take it in the morning, and then I take magnesium in the evening, before bed, and that offsets any constipation issues that calcium causes me.
