Calcium Concerns

WJean

Do you think you get enough calcium? As I get older, I think about this more. My older relatives take supplements, but I would like to get what I need through diet. I drink fortified oat milk, almond milk, and orange juice, and I love tofu. What do you do?

I love almond milk. Other ways I get calcium are broccoli, edamame, and spinach. I get what you mean about concerns for your bone health!

It’s broccoli, OJ, and different milks for me. Would you consider taking some kind of supplement, @WJean ? Don’t forget weight bearing exercise and vitamin D.

There’s plant based butters that also have calcium, that being said regular butter also has calcium being dairy… But I prefer the plant based stuff more.
