8 Plant-based Foods that Have More Calcium Per Gram Than Milk

Posted on September 20, 2024November 25, 2024 By drshintani No Comments on 8 Plant-based Foods that Have More Calcium Per Gram Than Milk

For decades we’ve been told that we have to drink milk to get enough calcium in order to prevent osteoporosis. But they never tell you that this concept is controversial because the countries that consume the most dairy have the most osteoporosis. For example the prevalence of osteoporosis in the US is about 12.6%. In the Philippines, the prevalence of osteoporosis is just 2.5% but they consume less than 10% of the amount of milk that we do in the US. So where should we get calcium? Here are 8 plant-based sources of calcium that are higher per gram than milk. Milk has about 120 milligrams per 100 grams, kale has a 150 milligrams per 100 grams, choice some has about 150 milligrams, turnip greens about 190 milligrams, kelp about 200 milligrams, collard greens about 232 milligrams, dulce about 250 milligrams, tofu 350 milligrams if set with calcium sulfate, Japanese seaweed hijiki has 800 milligrams of calcium per 100 grams. So consider these foods for your calcium sources.
