What should milk haters do to get enough calcium?

June 10, 2018 | By NuBest

Milk is considered a supplemental source of nutrients, especially calcium, to help us grow taller. However, not everyone is "interested" in milk. Some people even are allergic to milk. If you are suffering from this condition, you can use the following substitute foods to get enough calcium and to ensure that the height growth occurs favorably.

We often believe that milk is the best supplemental source of calcium. In fact, there are many other foods that contain a great deal of calcium and can be a good option for daily calcium intake.

Currently, dairy products are all introduced as nonbacterial safe organic sterilized milk. However, the milk sterilization can produce calcium carbonate which in fact cannot be directly absorbed into the body. Furthermore, it contains Methionine, which easily increases acidity and pH of the body, thereby adversely affecting the absorption of calcium into the bone.

Not everyone can get calcium from milk.

Moreover, there are many people who cannot drink milk due to allergies, lactose intolerance or autoimmune disorder. So, if you cannot drink milk due to mentioned reasons and you do not carry out other methods for calcium supplementation, you will have risks of being short or suffering from bone diseases due to calcium deficiency.

In order to avoid calcium deficiency due to not drinking milk, you can use following calcium-rich foods:

Calcium-rich foods that help increase height

Seafood

Seafood such as shrimps, crabs, and fishes is known to be one of the foods which is richest in calcium. Every 100 g of clam meat contains 177 mg of calcium while every 100 g of shrimps contains 882 mg of calcium. Therefore, we should not ignore seafood if we want to own an ideal height in future.

Bean

Each serving of beans contains about 175 mg of calcium. Moreover, soybeans, green beans and white beans are rich in protein, iron and fiber. In comparison with other foods, the price of beans is relatively cheap so people can use them easily. If you have difficulty in drinking milk, you can eat a lot of beans to get enough calcium and facilitate the height growth.

Beans contain relatively high calcium content.

Orange

Many people mistakenly believe that oranges can only provide vitamins. In fact, when you eat an orange, you provide 70 mg of calcium to your body, which is equivalent to 10% of the calcium requirement of the body during the day. This is also a very popular food that anyone can use. Therefore, you can eat from 1 to 2 oranges per day to get enough calcium, vitamin C, vitamin A and fiber, which are very good for health and height growth.

Almond

Almonds are also a kind of calcium supplement that is extremely effective in replacing milk. Studies have shown that eating almonds daily can provide a large amount of calcium to the body, even more than milk. If you eat 168 g of almonds, you get 320 mg of calcium. Furthermore, almonds are rich in fiber, vitamin E and other minerals, which help improve and enhance health.

Broccoli

Broccoli is called a superfood because it not only provides essential nutrients including vitamin A, vitamin K and minerals such as magnesium, zinc and phosphorus but also contains a very high calcium content. Therefore, it can help the body stay healthy and increase height optimally.

Broccoli is rich in calcium.

Sweet potato

A sweet potato contains about 55 mg of calcium. Moreover, sweet potatoes are considered a very good kind of food for the digestive process. Therefore, if you are "fed up" with milk or other kinds of fish and meat, you can choose sweet potatoes to ensure that calcium is provided sufficiently.

What is more, another comprehensive and effective solution to the supplementation of calcium is to use growth supplements.
