A Vegan Diet
How do people get their rda of calcium from a vegan diet?
Ok so I recently become vegetarian and vegan just wandering how other Vegans get their rda of calcium as it's in shortage? Aside from dairy products/fish etc as far as I'm aware. Do people manage to get enough from a vegan diet or do they use a supplement? Thanks in advance!
James, have a look at http://veganhealth.org/ which is a website from Vegan Outreach with advice on specific nutrients from a vegan registered dietitian. There is plenty of calcium available from plant-based foods. Milk is not a natural human food. It's made by a cow for her babies just like human mothers produce breast milk for their babies. So no one can argue that milk from another species is a necessary food for humans. It's really crazy when you think about it. We don't even need our own mothers' breast milk after we're babies.
Vitamin D is also extremely important in your body. Here's an article from that website which talks about vitamin D and calcium. http://www.veganhealth.org/articles/bones
Foods like collards and broccoli are great sources of calcium. Some foods and beverages like orange juice are fortified with calcium.
