I am just on a roll man! So I had a little problem with my teeth recently and since then have been trying to increase my Calcium intake. We always hear for strong bones and teeth Calcium and Vitamin D. So while looking for a series of things online I stumbled across this list of Calcium rich foods.
The daily recommended amount of Calcium for 19 - 50 year old males and females is 1 000 mg. Below is a list of Calcium rich foods and their Calcium levels:
*Yoghurt - approximately 452 mg in 8 ounces
*Cheese - depends on the type
*Cereal - fortified with a range between 236 and 1043 mg
*Soy Beverage - fortified with 368 mg
*Sardines - 325 mg for 3 ounces
*Skim milk - 306 mg, and if you're like me and obsessed with chocolate :D chocolate milk has 288 mg
*Tofu - 253 mg
*Salmon - 181 mg
*Collard Greens - 178 mg
*Molasses - 172 mg in 1 tablespoon
