Source of calcium

[Blaine]

I can not digest lactose in great amount so I tend to stay away from it. I am worried about my body's need of calcium. Aside from milk what other sources of calcium can you recommend? Do you go for those food that are fortified with calcium or do you prefer to get it naturally?

Hi @Blaine. Apologies for the late response. This thread seems to have gotten buried along with a few others.

Please take a look at this post if you are still interested: https://veganforum.org/threads/vegetarian-to-vegan.590/#post-2474

Bok Choi is a very good source of vegan calcium. Along with kale, watercress, and broccoli.
Also most store-bought vegan milks, these days, are fortified with calcium.
