Question Posted Tuesday December 14 2004, 11:48 am
Does anyone know some type of food that would give me more calcium? I heard that the age i am (15) is one of the most important to get more of it. I HATE milk, and dont really like yogurt or cheese. I am afraid I might get osteoporosis when i get older. HELP!!
Mathew answered Tuesday March 8 2005, 6:13 am: Orange juice. And if you want even more calcium, put milk in orange juice. I know that sounds gross, but it is REALLY good. It kind of tastes like an orange julius. [ Mathew's advice column | Ask Mathew A Question ]

Moop answered Tuesday December 14 2004, 10:01 pm: don't take calcium tablets or any vitamin supplements. It's been shown that the people who take these end up with a disorder even worse than osteoporosis. Too much calcium is not a good thing, only take what your doctor recommends.

MFS answered Tuesday December 14 2004, 4:41 pm: Dark green leafy vegetables have more calcium than any dairy product. Orange juice does not naturally have calcium (though everyone keeps recommending it). The only OJ with calcium are the brands where it has been added, and will be listed as such on the carton. Broccoli, spinach, etc are excellent sources of calcium - superior to dairy, and more bioavailable. [ MFS's advice column | Ask MFS A Question ]

Berri answered Tuesday December 14 2004, 11:52 am: Well if you hate the three main sources of calcium, I guess you could always take some kind of supplement pill. ...Or you could eat Balance Bars...I think they've got a lot of calcium, and they're healthy.
