The list of foods that has more calcium than milk. Check out the article we found over at Buy Non-GMO Seeds.
We have always been told to drink our milk because it helps to build strong bones. What if you were told that there are foods that contain more calcium than milk?
People between the ages of 19-50 are recommended to get about 1,000 mg of calcium daily. The recommended dose for people aged 9-18 need 1,300 mg and people over 50 need 1,200 mg of calcium. Milk isn’t always the best choice for getting your calcium dosage. Have you ever considered other foods?
- Kale: In 3 and a half cups of kale contains about 315 mg of calcium and should be added to your diet.
- Collard greens: one cup of cooked collard greens contain 268 mg of calcium and also contains about three days’ worth of vitamin A.
- Broccoli: 2 cups of raw broccoli contain 86 mg of calcium, and it contains twice the vitamin C as an orange.
- Edamame: one cup of cooked edamame contains 98 mg of calcium and is also a complete protein that contains all nine essential amino acids.
