Im afraid I wont get enough calcium, any ideas how to?

Ok the thing is I wont drink MILK!!! and I wont eat anything that has like a lot of cheessseee in it bleh!!!Im afraid I wont get enough calcium, any ideas how to?

Answer #1

Nondairy Foods with Calcium

Getting enough calcium can be a especially hard if your kids are allergic to milk. These nondairy foods can be good choices for kids with milk allergies who need calcium: Salmon Tofu Rhubarb Sardines Collard greens Spinach Turnip greens Okra White beans Baked beans Broccoli Peas Brussel sprouts Sesame seeds Bok choy Almonds Calcium-fortified Foods

In addition to the large number of calcium rich foods that are naturally found, like milk and cheese, a lot of foods are now fortified with calcium. These can be especially good choices if your child doesn’t like to drink milk. Calcium-fortified breakfast cereal, including General Mills Whole Grain Total, Total Raisin Bran, Total Cranberry Crunch, and Total Honey Clusters, all of which have 100% DV of calcium per serving! Calcium-fortified orange juice Calcium-fortified soy milk SunnyD with Calcium (most SunnyD products don’t have calcium, so look for the one that does if your child needs extra calcium in his diet) Instant oatmeal Calcium-fortified bread or English muffins Calcium-fortified drink mixes such as Pediasure or Carnation Instant Breakfast Other calcium-fortified breakfast cereals, including General Mills Golden Grahams (350 mg) By learning to read food labels, you may be able to find other foods that are fortified with calcium.

Answer #2

hey I’ve been a vegitarian for the past ten years and also dont drink milk or eat a lot of dairy products andi have not had any problems with my calcium levels being to low so I dont think you need to worry to much about it.

however if your still unsure head to your doc for a check up, and ask him if there are any supplements which you could take.

Answer #3

simple, just drink fortified rice milk or nut milk. they cost around the same too I think.

Answer #4

just eat fish and soy things. it sure helpes you.
