Too much iron is very unhealthy for men and for women after menopause. I don't think calcium does much to build muscles either.

I quit taking calcium supplements because of new studies of the rink of heart attacks.

Here is a starter, but there is a lot of info on it if you do a search.

Don't take them at the same time as calcium will reduce iron absorbtion.

I'd say Iron. Iron causes stars to explode. I think that makes it more important.

Both calcium n iron is important, lack of iron will make you tired, calcium makes your bones strong, try to get both. but all in all protein is better to build muscle.
