Calcium is one of the most important minerals required for the development of various systems of our body, most prominently the skeletal system. To promote muscle and bone health and to make the immune system stronger we need to add a good calcium dietary source to our everyday diet. Calcium dietary source may come from vegetarian or non-vegetarian diet. People who can easily digest milk and all other dairy products are strongly advised to add these rich calcium sources to their diet. 1 cup of pure milk provides up to 400 mg of calcium. Similarly dairy products like cheese, yoghurt and cream contain adequate quantities of calcium and other minerals. |
