Calcium are you getting enough?

So do you know how much calcium you need in a day?

If your a woman aged 19-50 you will need 1000mg per day and women over 50 need 1300mg per day!

So how can you get that amount?

200g plain low fat yoghurt contains on average 420mg
40g cheddar cheese contains 327mg
1/2 cup tofu contains 285mg
15 almonds contains 40mg
100ml fortified orange juice contains up to 80mg
100g cooked spinach contains 100mg
250ml skim milk contains 320mg
1/2 cup canned salmon contains 402mg

So next time your planning your day perhaps you might think of your calcium and if your getting enough as a lack of calcium for women can cause such things as osteoporosis!
