You don't like to drink milk? Or you can't digest properly? Here's a good news for you,there are a lot of ways for you to get enough calcium that don't come from dairy products.
Here are the Five Dairy-Free Calcium Products according to Dr. Andrew Weil, M.D.:
FIRST: The Calcium-fortified Beverages. Soymilk and orange juice are the good sources. It is important that you take time to read the label so you would know how much calcium can u get out of the product. Malate and calcium citrate are better absorbed than calcium lactate and tricalcium phospate.
SECOND: Vegetables such as Kale, spinach, and turnip greens, are few good examples of the natural sources of calcium.
THIRD: Canned Salmons with Bone. The bones of salmon fish are a very good source of calcium. You will get 18 percent of DV of calcium from 3-oz of canned salmon,including the bones.
FOURTH: Broccoli. When you eat raw, you will get 2 percent of DV of calcium from 1/2 cup percent of this vegetable.
FIFTH: Tofu. Check the package label to make sure calcium was used in its preperation. If so, 1/2 cup of firm tofu contains 20 percent of your calcium DV, but the same amount of soft tofu contains 14 percent of calcium.
