In recent years, research shows that this essential mineral may also protect against several types of cancer including colon and breast cancer. How much is enough? Unfortunately, most Americans consume far less than the Recom mended Dietary Allowance (RDA) for calcium. For those age 11 to 24, the RDA is 1,200 milligrams, and for older adults, 800 milligrams. Many women need even more cal cium at certain stages of their lives. Yet nutrition surveys indicate that the typical adult gets only 450-550 milligrams of calcium per day. Not Just Milk Most Americans get their calci um from dairy foods, especially milk. And with 300 milligrams of calcium per cup, just three to four cups of skim milk takes care of most adults’ daily calcium requirement. But dairy products aren’t the only sources of calcium in our diets. There are plenty of lowfat, non-dairy ways to meet your calcium needs. "‘Sardines and salmon with bones, are among the richest sources of calcium. "■Tofu and other soybean prod ucts can be high in calcium, so read labels. 19 Ft. to 46 Ft.

Salea Corp COLUMBUS Reed Brothara Equipment FAIRIELO Caldwell Tractor t Equipment Facts ♦Certain veggies like mustard greens, kale, col lard greens, parsley and broccoli are good sources of calcium. Eating too much protein and sodium can increase the amount of calcium lost in your urine, thus increasing your need for this miner al even more. Caffeine and Tiber may have smaller effects on calci um loss. One way to increase your absorption of calcium is to get enough vitamin D—the best source in our diets is milk fortified with vit amin D. While it’s important to include lots of vegetables in your diet, even an avid vegetable eater would be hard-pressed to get an entire day’s calcium from these foods alone. It takes almost two cups of cooked kale or two and a half cups of cooked broccoli to meet the calcium equivalent of one cup of skimmed milk. Most Americans can meet their daily calcium requirement through a combination of lowfat dairy and non-dairy sources. And since eating a variety of nutritious foods is essential for better health and lower cancer risk, it really does pay to find different ways to get more calcium in your diet.
