Re: Calcium - Are my kids getting enough?

[Guest guest]

Is your youngest nursing? 3-4 nursings a day provide plenty of

calcium. Also a well made bone broth will give a lot more calcium

(ounce for ounce) than milk will so that is another option.

Thanks, Patty. Yes, my youngest is still nursing. I feel relieved

now. And the bone broth is a great idea.

How about yogurt smoothies with honey to sweeten and some fruit. My

kids like theirs with honey and ripe banana.

Almond have a ton of calcuim in them as well. My little girl hasn't had dairy in

over 4 years

and is the tallest in her class and has never had one cavity. The calcium in

greens and

almonds is actually more bio available than that of cows milk anyway.

Wow! Thanks so much for all your great and incredibly helpful

replies. My daughter definitely gets lots of dark green leafy

vegetables and dark green veggies. She also gets almond flour in

baked goods and pancakes. So...I feel much better now and am relieved

to know she is surely getting enough. Thanks, everyone.

If you want to calculate her intake, you can use the US Nutrient

Database (found online).

You can type in what you are looking for and it gives detailed

nutritional information about the item. It's a very handy resource.
